Replacement Screws for Carbon Blade

Awhile back, my first pair of Carbon Blades broke. Specifically, the outer screw stud for one of the lenses broke out of the frame. With a lot of trial and error, I was able to get the stud re-attached to the frame in a position where I'm able to secure the lenses to the frame, but in the process of said trial and error and with me not having a proper work bench setup, I lost several of the screws. They're no longer under warranty, so it'd be easier for me to fix them than to try and replace them. I was able to find a replacement screw kit on eBay, but unfortunately they sold before I had a chance to buy them and that was the only listing like that that I found. Does anyone know if Oakley sells these parts directly? If need be I can contact their customer service, but I've heard that going through their CS is a nightmare these days, and that's something I'd prefer to avoid unless I know that I can get what I'm looking for from them. If that's not an option, there are plenty of hardware stores around here, but I have no idea what size screws I'd need, or even if a hardware store would sell screws that small. I know this likely isn't something that a ton of people here have experience with, but I do know that these were prone to issues, so I'm hoping that someone might have some insight into what I'll need to do.
 
Quick update: I should've searched a little more on the forum before I posted the thread, but just in case anyone happens to come across this in the future and has the same question: try checking with a shop that does glasses repair.
