i wonder if you could wet sand the lense with 1000 grit wet. then polish it back out?

Hard to say, the inside of the lens is definitely nicer...maybe if I don't get any bites I will try that, thanks

I use Brasso to clean watch crystals both plastic and glass.

it is worth a shot, although looking at this it may be too far gone.
