Yes, I mean twist up eyecups to suit those wearing eyeglasses.  I didn't 
know the proper term.  I got mine at the store in Mahone Bay.  Such Eagle 
binos like mine are no longer manufactured so in place are those made in 
China.

I assume you speak about the twist-up eyecups and not the rain-guards. 
Eyecups are manufacturer and model specific, therefore there is hardly a 
general solution. Your best bet is to contact the manufacturer.
I don't know what model of Eagles you own, but some of their products are 
covered by a life time no fault warranty and you can have them repaired or 
replaced for a small fee.  Just check their website or with the retailer 
where you purchased them on how to proceed.

  Please do reply on-line because I have the same problem.  My eagle pair is 
really good, but is missing the eye protector....  Such plastics are so easy 
to break.  Would hate to have to buy another pair...  thanks

  Hello:
  Looking for suggestions
  I have a 10 yr old pr of Bausch & Lomb binoculars 8x36 (model 61-8360) 
which have served me well.  However,
  I am missing an eye cap (really need 2)
  I have tried For the Birds, the Bushnell repair shop, 3 camera shops in 
Halifax, Nortown in Toronto and United Camera in Illinois
  With no luck. The repair shop suggested I make eye covers using an inner 
tube
  I will buy a new pr. , however I would still like to have these in working 
order
  Would anyone have a suggestion? Contacting me off-line would be 
appreciated
  Thanks in advance
  Gail Bruhm
