It’ll almost certainly bugger the lenses. I wouldn’t risk it!

Try a little bit on the end of the arm to see if it melts the acetate. Remove the lenses before gluing. It takes 24hrs to fully harden. I've never managed to glue a frame with any long term success but I've not tried many either. Normally the repair fails because there's too much stress on too little surface area.

I need to do a quick repair on a pair of specs - acetate frame. Is Gorilla contact adhesive going to react with either the acetate or the lens (high-index plastic)? I know it's not the ideal glue but it's what I've got, I just don't want to melt the frame or haze the lens while I'm at it.
