Someone told me a while ago that if you have a "must wear corrective
lenses" restriction on your medical and wear contacts, that you have to
carry a pair of regular glasses while flying. Is that true? And if so,
does anyone have a reference?

Yes, my New Zealand Class 2 Medical has on the back of it:

Restrictions Applicable:
001 Spectacles (distance vision) must be worn.
007 Spare spectacles must be readily available.
