If you know your old prescription, there's a few stores that have varying strengths of reading glasses, non-prescription. Most of them have the same strength for each eye, but are useable until you can get a new prescription.

So far, the best offer is mid-May (one person just said October!)
I think it's Warby Parker that does eye exams online if you have the right smartphone.

If you actually do have an active prescription (I'm assuming this isn't the case) or can get your optometrist to write a note/ COVID exemption, there's overnight/1 day shipping from several online retailers where you can use various lenses combined for under $100, and they can be rushed overnight.
Glasses.com had an ad a bit back for people whose healthcare was delayed due to COVID restrictions on office visits etc.
You could probably get someone to help you if you called them, and explained the situation.

I've never had a problem like this before (I usually could just sort of.....walk in.
Right after the 2020 lockdown I broke my glasses and had to make do with old ones until they got things sorted. I've been getting glasses online for the last two years now and I'm happiest with Goggles4U.com but they don't do eye exams. If you check out Goggles4U.com make certain you sign up and then wait for the 73% off sales or other deals before you order AND VERY IMPORTANT TO GET YOUR PD MEASUREMENT FROM THE EYE EXAM - YOU WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO SPECIFICALLY ASK FOR IT.
