Glasses

got a question for you guys. i did a girls varsity private school tourney this past weekend, during one game a girl who is wearing glasses, not rec-specs, plain ole wire rimmed glasses gets them knocked of in big time traffic. knowing that many of these players are from low income families and that glasses are expensive, i blow my whistle and allow her to get them off the floor. i know i probably shouldn't have but I did. becuase i stopped play, i make her leave the game and I tell the coach she needs to put a strap on them, i seriously thought I had read that in one of the officiating books. coach goes nuts, but so many whistles in that game the girls is back in the game in no more than 2 minutes. my partner tells me at a break that it is not a rule, and we decide to tell the coach, i was mistaken, but if it keeps happening, we'll T the girl up for delay of game. so, any thoughts?
