At some point in Italy, between 1268 and 1289, someone came up with the idea, but the actual inventor remains anonymous.
Though doubt exists as to the actual inventor, all prototypes were probably invented in Italy late in the thirteenth century, where Alessandro di Spina and others were given credit for the first eyeglasses.
The use of eyeglasses was depicted in several artworks created in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, giving credence to the existence of spectacles during this period.
The first eyeglasses were made in Italy at about 1286.
And the first lenses for correcting astigmatism were constructed by the British astronomer George Airy in 1825.
They were invented in 1286
Eyeglasses were invented by an unknown Italian in the late 13th century, with some attributing the invention to Salvino d'Armati. The first documented use of eyeglasses was in the early 14th century in Italy.
The first eyeglasses were invented in the 13th century, around the year 1286, by an Italian inventor named Salvino D'Armate. These early eyeglasses were simple magnifying glasses made by mounting lenses into frames.
Eyeglasses were invented in Italy in the late 13th century. They were initially made from two magnifying glasses framed together.
The Bifocals by Benjamin Franklin in 1784.
Eyeglasses were invented in Italy in the late 13th century. They were the result of experimentation with convex and concave lenses to correct vision. The earliest known depiction of eyeglasses is attributed to the artist Tommaso da Modena in a portrait from 1352.
Salvino D'Aramto invented the eyeglasses in 1284.
In Italy in the year 1284, Salvino D'Armate invented the first pair of wearable eyeglasses, although traditional eyeglasses as we know them today, were invented by Francesco Redi in 1676.

This question does not make sense... but I am answering it as 'When were the eyeglasses invented?' and the answer is in 1284 in Italy by Salvino D'Armate.

Yes, but not widely used. Eyeglasses were the invention of the emperor Nero. He was shortsighted and had difficulty with distance vision. He invented a pair of lenses to enable him to see events in the arena or at the races. They were supposed to be made of a transparent green stone, possibly emerald, so he not only invented eyeglasses, but sunglasses as well.Yes, but not widely used.
