How do I polish scratches out of the plastic eyes on an old soft toy?

Do the test the first comment suggests before anything else: a drop of water on the surface. If the cloudiness disappears while wet, it is surface scratching and polishing will fix it. If it stays, the plastic has degraded through and no amount of abrasive helps.

Two minutes and it decides whether the rest of the thread applies to you.
