These are what I have:

Wiki Wiki

And neither set below that I have on hand fit the size of the sunglasses screw:

9-in-1 Pocket Micro Precision Screwdriver TORX Lifetime Warranty

Stanley 66-052 6-Piece Precision Screwdriver Set

Anyone know what size is needed? And where to get it?

Most eyeglass stores will tighten for free. Tightened mine up at Eyemasters on Bluebonnet.

Yes, I agree and will usually do it for no charge. However, I'm looking to do it from home and not have to take my sunglasses in every so often to get them tightened.

not joking, I got a set of precision screwdrivers at biglots for like two bucks.

That was several years ago and still use them today.

Maybe yours is a Phillips?

JK, take a nail and sand it down until it is the right size to fi the slot. If you are feeling really creative, split a large piece of dowel rod and use your dremel to hollow out a groove to make a handle.

Apply glue, then put it in your vise until the glue dries. Sand it town to smooth it all out. Apply a nice stain that compliments your garage décor.

Now take that sumbitch, turn it sideways, and shove it up your roodypoo, candy arse.

Both Costco and Sams Club carry a kit

lens cleaner with wipes and screwdriver

also amazon has them too

INSIDER tip, to stop having to constantly tighten up the screws. pull out screw. with toothpick and molasses ready, coat the threads with a dab of molasses, don't over do it.
wait 5-10 minutes , then install screw, you'll likely never have to tighten again!

you can also use, paint, nail polish

Get an electricians/precision screwdriver set. Greenlee is what I rock and roll with

You can get a set at Lowe's or online

I put blue Loctite on mine

one of my clients is an opto... he says the tools they use are not commercially available. In this way, they keep you coming back...
