Who invented the eye glasses?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The first eyeglasses were made in Italy at about 1286, according to a sermon delivered on February 23, 1306, by the Dominican friar Giordano da Pisa (ca. 1255–1311): "It is not yet twenty years since there was found the art of making eyeglasses, which make for good vision...And it is so short a time that this new art, never before extant, was discovered...I saw the one who first discovered and practiced it, and I talked to him."[7] Giordano's colleague Friar Alessandro della Spina of Pisa (d. 1313) was soon making eyeglasses.
