Bugger ... I feel for you.

I have spare specs secreted at home, at work and in the car.
That way when I am a dufuss, I have a recovery plan.

I also bought some mini specs at a servo and I carry these in my laptop bag.
They look stupid on me, but have saved me on a few occasions.

They are stored in a tube with a lid and it looks like a large lipstick container.
This protects them whilst they are in the bag with all the other objects, connectors and stuff.

People will often ask me what it is and I usually tell them that it is Mick Jagger's Lipstick.

So I pretty well have covered the specs issue.

Now if I could do this sort of thing with the mobile phone, I would be even happier.
