Or it occurs off-screen in the book... his glasses do break, and are
thus presumably whole beforehand, when he lands in Knockturn Alley in
the _second_ book. Wrapped tape is more likely to bend/crumble than
"break" in any meaningful sense. I believe that the glasses _were_
repaired in pure-book-continuity sometime between the start of the
first book and the start of the second, and that the "movie
contamination" is only in the timeframe... either way, whatever caused
them to be fixed didn't "wear off" nor has hardly any other spell
