Replaceable caps definitely exist, they are common on glass soft drink bottles where I am. They look just like the plastic lids but in thin sheet metal, complete with perforations and ring.
Some of the screwtop beer bottle style reseal pretty well too.
All the adjacent windows have various minor ailments and phrases like “fix this? Treat that?” It’s trying to give an idea of what chemists can do for you.
