I've been caving, especially digging now without any glasses for a while. But this makes me feel like I am missing out on fine details of the cave, which I am.
I am just curious as to any ways some other cavers have adapted to this. For now I carry them in a hard case and throw them on when I need to look at something detailed, but I am looking for a better solution.
Anyone ever tried the durable sports glasses?

I dig, crawl, swim, ascend in waterfalls, etc with my contacts and never had a real issue. However, my buddy, he is always having trouble with his. Last trip, he lost one before we were even 50' in the cave. I think his lenses do not fit properly. Anyway, you should try the contacts. They work well for me.
