They usually have those tiny screws at the checkout counters at supermarkets

Look for a glasses repair kit at Walmart or Kmart. The kit includes a screw driver (the size needed to fit the tiny screws) and several screws. It's a lot cheaper than spending a fortune to have some pro do it. They are usually located near the registers. Ask at the store if they carry them if you don't find them right away.
Hope this helps and have a great day!!!

You could get a little "eyeglass repair kit" at the drugstore for cheap. It has a small screwdriver, a magnifying glass, and a variety of eyeglass screws. It is easy to use and much cheaper than anything at a doctors. You might also ask at the store where you bought the glasses. Most chain eyeglass places will fix them for free also.

Just go to the grocery store. By the check outs, in the impulse items, look for the eye glass repair kits. Usually run around $2. It includes a jewelers screwdriver, screws, and nose pads. While the doctor may replace it for free, it will save time to do it yourself.

Yes you can. Be on alert some eye glass places charge you repair of your glasses. Even if it is something minor as a lost screw. You can repair them yourself with an eye glass kit. You can find them at your local grocery store in the check out lane, dollar store, pharmacy, CVS, Wal-Mart, Target, K-Mart, Walgreens, Rite Aide or neighborhood store on the corner might have it. Good luck and thanks for the points.

I am sure you could walk into a Walmart and get one, or any store that has reading glasses should have a repair kit, which will contain a screw that will fit.
But yes your doctor should have some as well, provided they make glasses there. I would call first.

Yes. Also, places like WalMart and Target often have small screws availble. Or you could get a small eyeglass repair kit. Those are available alomst anywhere: gas stations and other stores. That way is most likely going to be a lot cheaper.

go to a walmart that has an opthmalogist area they will replace the screw for free. then i would go home and put super glue on all the screws in the glasses so it doesn't happen again.

Yes. This just happened to me. I called my eye doc and they said just bring the glasses over. They told me they have all sizes of screws. Boy was I glad. Also,they will not charge you. Good luck.

I lost my screw and I bought a repair kit for glasses, it has screws, pads for your nose, and a screw driver. You can get this at any drug store by the cash register.
