Answer 4

During the confrontation on the mountain top, which takes places after the signal fire has been allowed to go out, Jack punched Piggy in the stomach. Piggy fell and his glasses came off, resulting in one lense becoming cracked. Later in the novel Roger toppled a large boulder from the top of Castle Rock. The boulder hit Piggy a glancing blow which knocked him off the cliff. Piggy landed on a flat rock in the sea with enough force for his head to split open and his brains to get spilled on the rock. In this incident Piggy's glasses and the conch were also smashed to pieces.

Another answer: One lens of Piggy's glasses was broken as a result of Jack punching him but the rest of the glasses remained intact. Jack and two of his hunters stole Piggy's glasses during a raid on the shelters, so he didn't have them when he was hit by the boulder. At the end of the book the naval officer notices... A little boy who wore the remains of an extrordinary black cap on his red hair and who carried the remains of a pair of spectacles at his waist...

One lens is broken after Jack 'smacked Piggy's head and his glasses flew off and tinkled on the rocks." This incident occurred on page 78 (in the Faber paper covered edition) in chapter 4: Painted Faces And Long Hair. Piggy's glasses where later stolen by Jack and presumably remained in the same condition.

actually it is page 71

Answer 6

After Jack needs the two boys who should be on fire duty to take part in his hunt the fire goes out and the boys miss the opportunity to be rescued. Jack tolerates Ralph admonishing him about this but when Piggy also criticises him Jack loses his temper. Jack punches Piggy in the stomach, which cause the fat boy to sit down with a thud. Then Jack stands over Piggy and slaps him across the head. The blow sends Piggy's glasses flying among the rocks and one lens is broken.
Something to do with Jack and Jill.
