Diopters for Ricoh cameras

I have a couple of Ricoh's, KR-10M/KR-5 Super II.
It shows in the manual the KR-10M did have a full range of diopters available for it. I certainly haven't found any listed anywhere today. I did find a little info that suggested their may be some cross compatibility with diopters with Ricoh/Pentax cameras.

Anyone have any idea if there are diopters that may fit either of my two Ricoh's? It's a real wild shot but thought it won't hurt to ask. Would be so much better to use these cameras without glasses if I could.

Any diopters that have the right filter threads for your lenses will work, the brand/model of camera is pretty much irrelevant.

Viewfinder diopters. ..a pair of old eyeglasses with your prescription, the lens can be cut to correct dimensions to fit -- better than manufacturer results if you have astigmatism...

Ok, thanks, I'll check with my optometrist to see who can do that. I'm due for a visit anyhow.
