just make sure you pick a frame that's smaller than your other one. you can do this at lens crafter's for as little at $50 for the frames and i would hope they wouldn't charge you anything to have the lenses fit.

Sometimes you can't do that, because the lenses aren't the right shape to fit in the frames that are available. Take them to LensCrafters, or WalMart's vision center, or something similar, and ask them if it's possible. You may be able to get a frame for 60 to 75 dollars, not fancy. But it will probably cost more like 100- 125.

You will probably have to go to an retail eye glass store because you will either need frames that fit your lenses or you will have to have the lenses ground to fit the frames that you want. Expect to pay anywhere from $40 to $200 for the frames. They wholesale for about 1/10th of the price. Markup sucks. You may want to check the internet.

Good luck. You will probably have to find the exact same kind of frames that you had before (which may or may not be in production). I've seen frames cost from $85 to 100s of dollars.

Call your local walmart Vision Department and they would be able to tell you.

It all depends on where you live.
