It was suggested that the labs that do the work for optometrists
might be able and willing to do this. Perhaps it would be worth
looking into, but the expense would be quite high and I don't really
know if it would be worth it overall. Apart from buying the SMC
Pentax filters, there'd be the expense of cutting them down and
mounting them in appropriate sized rings, the cost of getting older
filters in the appropriate size in order to use the rings, and then
the cost of the B+W filters that I already have that I'd no longer
be using, even though I could probably sell them and get back some
of their cost.
