I actually kept my old glasses for backup as I did not get two pairs, so
that'd not be an option. Plus, I wore my last pair of glasses for so
long, they had superglue application so I'd not want to do that.

I wonder about buying some of the cheaper reading glasses available and
using those frames, but I've noted that the frame mountings don't have
screws. :-(

I've not searched for frames on line.

Imho, the cost of frames is assinine!
