do opticians like specsaves have spare temples to fit to a different frame if th!

They probably do, but don't get your hopes up, it isn't easy or always possible to do.

Many frames have a one of a kind type hinge joint and nothing else will fit except the original parts.

Finding one that will fit as a temporary repair can often be done, but a pair is harder to get. I have drawers full of broken frames I keep for parts like that , but most only have one good temple on them.

Sometimes the only solution is to have the lenses recut into a slightly smaller frame...IF they can find one.

We get people who come in a lot with this issue... The best thing would be to take them into any optical shop and see what they can do for you. It's not always possible to find a temple that is a perfect fit but they may be able to find something that can tide you over until you can get a new pair of glasses.
