These glasses were given to me by an old fella a couple years ago, and happen to be an almost perfect match for my vision!

I recently replaced the rotted earpiece tips, but I don't know where to find new nose pieces for them. See, they don't screw on like modern glasses, they have fold-in metal tabs to hold them on..

I am extremely thankful for these glasses, as they were basically a gift from a time capsule from 1988 that just works perfectly for me (plus seems much more scratch resistant than modern stuff).

Anyways, is it possible to find new nose pieces with the fold-in metal tabs?

Bonus homemade custom keyring emergency prescription lens in the photo..

Have you discussed it with an optician? You might need to find an upscale one that doesn’t mostly carry Luxottica. There’s a variety of types in use.

You could also look at a shop that sells and repairs jewelry. Make sure they're highly rated, and they'll be able to order and rig something up for you.

Giving heavy Dahmer vibes, very cool. I would order a new pair of nose bridges, snap the old one off and have a jeweler solder on the new ones.

I surely don't care for this style of glasses, but they're free, match my vision even better than my last prescription, and are pretty damn rugged.

I never wanted these glasses, but apparently I need them.. 🤷

Edit: I do my own soldering, if you look very closely, I already had to solder the right nose bridge armpiece...

It's hard to see but i think the screw is right here:

Or maybe it's just artifacting from zooming in too far

That's apparently image artifacts then. There really is no screw or screw mount area, it's a bent clip design, similar to a staple.

They are called clip on nose pads. Sometimes they were called crimp on nose pads. They are still available if you search online.

(O o O)

You can get them on amazon for sure, which means they'd also be available elsewhere if you dig for them a little.

Sorry for doubting you. Maybe a closer photo of the attachment part would help identify it?

Uhhhhh holup. That makes me even moar....vintage...?!

Not sure how I feel. That said, love the vibe, reminds me of RPGs from the Army.

Wish I could, but my camera sucks, especially at close enough range to get a good proper view ☹️

Oh well, I've gotten some good informative comments here, I'll ask around at optometrists' offices when I get a chance.
