The closest reputable binocular repair shop that I'm aware of is:
Redlich Binocular and Optical Repair<bold> </bold>(Falls Church VA) 800-414-
6019, +1- 703-241-4077
However you didn't say what brand your binoculars are. Many of
the high end makers have their own repair sites in the US (Zeiss is
down in Petersburg, VA, eg.) and you may want to approach them
directly.
You should also think long and hard about whether your current
binoculars are worth getting fixed up. Sometimes the cost of re-
alignment, etc make the job counter-productive so you may want
to think if your current bins are worth being fixed (I don't remember
what binoculars you're using and I'm not trying to insult your
optics, just pointing out one factor to consider when deciding
whether to fix or buy new).
Anyway, for more info on repair locations or other optics stuff, see
the birding optics site at:
