Glasses screw

Anyone know where to get a screw from for the arm of my glasses. The arm fell off yesterday and as I was at work my GF said she'd pop them into the local optician to get them fixed but was told that they couldn't fix them and it was a new pair job.

Now, all that has happened is a tiny screw fell out from the inside edge of the hinge (it's much smaller than the main hinge screw) and I figure that there must be somewhere to get these tiny screws from for these timberland glasses. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.

If they are Timberland specs mate you must have had them from Specsavers, pop in to Brum mate ask me and I'll sort them for you Image

Go into most branches of Spec Savers. They have usually given me a free screw (fnarr)

my local specsavers said it's a screw that isn't carried though :-(

I'll be back at uni in brum in a couple of weeks so I could pop up to have a look then though (inlove)
