Not sure that there is a single definite "inventor". Dive masks of some description have been used since ancient times using polished tortoise shells over the eyes (ie. without enclosing the nose).
When Scuba diving became popular in the 1950s, most people simply made their own masks using a lense and either vulcanised rubber or neoprene. Modern masks only really started to develop when manufacturers stepped forward to make masks with finger pockets to pinch the nose to equalise.
I am not aware that anyone has ever held a patent in any country for "inventing" the dive mask.

Can you scuba dive wearing an oval mask?
Yes. It would be more comfortable if it covers the nose as well. You can dive without a mask, but you would find it difficult to see and you wouldn't be able to read your instruments. Plus it wouldn't be very comfortable especially if diving in salt water
