Here is a short conversation about spectacles
CV: I think part of the "peaceful look" extension comes from the fact
that he is still wearing his specticles, which are just crooked. Given
all the recent activity, one would have expected his glasses to be in
worse condition or missing, wouldn't you say? Unless you believe, as I
do, that it's all a fake.
Finwitch:
Not in the world of Unbreakable Charms. Hermione put one on the glass-
jar she had Rita in, remember? I'm positive that Albus Dumbledore,
Minerva McGonagall, Percy Weasley and Rita Skeeter all have
Unbreakable Charms on their glasses. <snip>
Now me again:
CV: You have a point about Unbreakable Charms. But I haven't heard of
an Un-Lose-able Charm. And we don't know if any Unbreakables might
have been put on his specs, either, for that matter. I think the fact
that his glasses are in such remarkable condition is the result of a
soft landing. You don't have to agree with me. That's what we are all
here for. But I have a firm ticket to sail on the Wily Headmaster Is
Sneakily Twisting Most Awful Scenario (W.H.I.S.T.M.A.S.)
