They make prescription sports goggles for sparring... very strong and damned near unbreakable plastic with a strap around the back. I have sparred with people who wear them... they are allowed at tournaments even. They looked a bit funky but, well, who cares?
You could also get contacts but I have known martial artists to lose one when they take a kick to the head then the sparring or tournament is derailed because the person lost the contact!
I doubt you would really need them unless you really are myopic. You are, after all, up close and personal with your opponent.

When sparring they usually take their glasses off (if they can see reasonably well without them) but mostly they tend to wear contacts.
Glasses themselves would be prone to breaking and it's bringing glass into the match which is another hazard issue, so I would not recommend sparring with them on.

as long as you see well with out your glasses, or you can buy contact lenses, they are so good and you won't fell it, it great, but you'll have some problem putting it in at the beginning.

It depends on their eyesight without the glasses
