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?

I've never heard that, but I do carry a pair of glasses. I lost a contact
lens once in flight and had to finish the flight with one. For a few
years my vision benefit was such that it didn't make sense to get contact
lenses through insurance, so one year I got a spare pair specifically
for the plane. Of course that won't work if your eyes are changing...
