Yes. the first glasses were made in the late 13th century, and Italian crystal glass was being used in the 14th Century.

Note, however, that such items were both extremely expensive and rare, and not available to the poor for many more centuries.

Yes, people did wear glasses in the middle ages. The earliest evidence of glasses being used dates back to the 13th century in Italy. These early glasses were made by craftsmen who ground lenses from pieces of glass and set them into frames made of bone or metal.
