the quick answer is "carefully"

you can buy screen cleaner - or screen wipes

but the DIY approach is simple enough
you just need to be gentle:

a soft cloth - not paper towel or a panscrub
natural soap - not detergent (actually 1 drop of shampoo in a beaker is very good)

lightly dampen the cloth (be careful here ... if you end up with water dripping down the screen ... you'll mess up the whole job)

lightly rub all over the screen ... remember they are made like a sandwitch - with a very thin membranes - if you press too hard ... you'll rupture the sandwitch
(the bigger the screen ... the less pressure it will take ... so do be careful)

if the screen is really bad ... repeat - don't be tempted to scrub - the surfaces are pretty soft and scratch easily.

dry the screen with another soft cloth to prevent streaking

many thanks but i have now found the top layer of the sandwich is scratched , is it possible to repair
depends how deep

I've seen it done with one of those nail polishing things the wife uses

start coarse ... work down to fine ...
alternatively face powder could do the trick
or
if you visit a jeweller - the rouge they use will polish scratches out of watch faces ....

but you are just as likely to do more damage
