What is the name of the product that you put on your glasses and takes the scratches out. I seen it advertise about three weeks ago but forgot the name of it. They showed that you put a little bit of this stuff on the lens and rub the lens with a cloth and the scratches came out on TV. Also, have you used this product?

depending on the quality of your lens to begin with you may be a little bit s.o.l.
without getting too technical,
most modern lenses of even half-decent quality are coated with various films that help the lens transmit light more efficiently.
use that crap and you'll scrub em' right off...then again, I guess those coatings aren't going to do much of anything right now to help with those scratches anyway, huh?
There are creams and buffing compounds that lens makers and even amateur astronomers use to polish their stuff to perfectly optically clear finishes but (and it's a HUGE but)
it is so not an easy or even advisable task unless this was a lens that your your dad smuggled out a POW camp in his rear end and gave to you on his death bed for safekeeping.
hopefully you are still under warranty.
best o' luck!

When they tried the stuff on a TV program locally called Deals or Duds, they declared it a dud as the users said it left small ripples and you could still get reflections off the scratches under the goop and eye guys said it was not optically good.
