Default Teleconversion Lens Advice

I own an Olympus 1.7x Tele Conversion Lens for my Panasonic Lumix camera, unfortunately one of the internal lens has come loose after I accidently dropped it and my photographs are now coming out 'feathered' at the edges. I was just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem as I am undecided as to whether to get it repaired or just buy a new one?

Any advice would be greatfully recieived!

Price up the two alternatives, that may make up your mind for you.

Thank you for your reply Mike!

I have been told that my convertor might not be as good if I do get it repaired as there might be lasting damage to it, has anyone had any experience of this?

I think you are talking of add onto lens front TC.
Just checked the amazon and seems they are going cheap:

If this the right one for your camera, I guess you are a lot better off to buy a new one as just the price of inspection here, is more that this.
