The physicist Selvino Deli Armiti explained that the glasses were designed for those with a problem with a distant vision, and were equipped with lenses. They were assembled by the physicist, who had injured his eyes, experimenting with light probes. He discovered that the appearance of objects could be increased by looking through two pieces of glass.

The first glass lenses (300 BC) were used primarily to enlarge or ignite a fire, but the first glasses used to improve vision were invented in 1280 in Italy.

The first glasses included a lens that corrects vision problems due to aging. The lens correcting a vision problem was probably invented by Nicholas Makosa who was the first to discover that this problem could be corrected with a lens of this type. But it was not until 1604 that Johannes Kepler's research on optics and astronomy first published an accurate explanation for why people with these vision problems were corrected by means of lenses of all kinds.

Benjamin Franklin, the American scientist who suffered from an abnormal vision near and far, invented the glasses that include both near vision and near vision, in 1784 to avoid replacing two pairs of glasses as needed.

With incessant use of contact lenses and laser vision correction surgery, glasses are still very common and continue to evolve technologically. The glasses are also a fashionable product, and are manufactured by well-known fashion brands such as: Dior, Chanel, Opticana and so on. The word glasses was decided by Chaim Leib Hazan, as a one-word substitute for names that existed until then: a spectacle, a tool for seeing, a mirror and a house for the eyes.
