Canopy open incident.

Reading many of these responses one might conclude that loss of one's glasses might be a high probability in a canopy opening on tow. Perhaps our check lists might need to include "safety strap on glasses." I wear a pair of FIT OVERS over my glasses when flying, they are secured with a strap which I would hope would preclude the loss of both in such an event. It would only add to the situation if a pilot was to suddenly find him or herself in such a situation and additionally be impaired by the lack of adequate vision. Also, the need to emergency egress and the opening shock of a chute might cause one's specs to depart one's face. It might be time for me to break down and have that Lasik number done.
