Ever hear of this size screw and where to get?

My Zenni glasses need one of these. I ordered a watch screw set and
its not in there. It had one 3mm long, and smaller diameter 4mm long
but not this one.

I might be off a tad, this is my best guess from the optical
comparator.

Very likely could be 1.4mm diameter

Your local friendly optician should be able to help. Just don't tell him where you got the glasses grin.

Wal-Mart fixes glasses for free.

Karl, I've been buying Zeni for years. With every order I buy an extra pair of frames. ($7). Have lots of parts because I'm abusive with my glasses.
I know this doesn't answer your concern but I thought I'd share.

If Walmart Optical can't fix it free, try another optometrist's
office. Not ophthalmologist, but optometrist. They're the more
equipped of the two. The others just write sulfa scripts.

I come from a long line of optometrists. My grandfather freely gave
some inventions to the AOA in his more altruistic days. And Dad, my
uncle, and my cousin Sasha were all optos. Grandpa had a wonderfully
machine-populated lab for making glasses up on S. Wilshire Blvd in
HelL.A. back in the '60s. I wasn't much into it at age 10, though.

Another possibility is to check with a fastener distributor near you.
If they don't have it, they can probably put you in touch with someone
who does.

BINGO, thanks for the link. Milady is going to try the local wally
world first.

Just got back from an EPIC ROAD TRIP. Went ten hours to pick up my
son's first CNC mill. had truck trouble on the way back. Decided to
limp it home on the back roads. We left at 0430 AM - just arrived at
11:30 PM. The kid is still going for another hour. pretty sure the
truck is dead for good when ever he turns the key off again.
