Helo Mam As scratches in your glasses will not be providing accurate vision. Better to get your eye examination done to evaluate for any change in power of your glasses and then new glasses should be made.
Health Tips
Use glass cleaner solution or soft cloth to clean your glasses as it prevent scratches.
