Expensive lenses might well have hardened surfaces so something a bit abrasive would be a good bet. Possibly smoothing out edges also reduces stress but unless you're very very deep probably makes no difference I'd imagine other than to the image quality.
Polycarbonate screens on bikes won't have any significant surface hardening, they'd keep snapping if they did.
I'd treat it the same as a visor ...
Warm soft soapy water, spray or pour onto one side and then wipe gently with a microfibre cloth to remove crud. By wipe I mean like sweeping NO circular scrubbing as any fine grit just marks the surface. Wash off with clean water.
Repeat on the other side and if there's still grub repeat.
Blot any water on the surfaces with a chammy and leave it to dry.
Else scrub it with brasso and then repeat with finer and finer grade abrasives to remove the scratches the brasso put into it. Hours later it will be clear again.
