Can't quite parse how the division happened, but one can buy optical items from EdmundOptics, still in Barrington NJ. ScientificsDirect name-checks Edmund several times (it's a SEO move) but their catalog is purpose-built STEM-relevant toys, not the wild assortment of bibs and bobs I remember from Edmund.
However, Scientific Supplies and Surplus provides a nifty chaotic mix:
