Where?

The only reference to glasses in the NFHS rules is an exception under rule 5-11 that says a timeout shall not be charged if a players request results from displaced eyeglasses or lenses. Nothing in either the rules or casebook that says we immediately stop play if glasses become dislodged.

Of course if the glasses are on the floor and could cause a hazard we could stop it then.
