Back in the early '60s, if you needed glasses, you had to have a spare pair
with you. That got dropped about the same time that wearing contacts
required a waiver (mid 60s). THen it all got dropped.

Someone told me a while ago that if you have a "must wear corrective

carry a pair of regular glasses while flying. Is that true? And if so,
does anyone have a reference?
