In most cases, the scratch only affects resale - you’re dealing with someone who would buy a scratched Sony G E-Mount lens, as long as I can get a good price on it and it has no major impact. My main rule here is no rear scratching - that shows. The final image can sometimes show it in a few situations, but 95% of the time it’s just a scar. This article on the subject shows how much it matters, and when. Unless you’re doing a low contrast shoot, it’s usually a non-issue. If it was really that visible and the scratched lens affected a shoot, I’ll just retouch it.
Test it in your “common” use cases best you can, and make sure it’s not visible - or if it is, you need to hunt for it. If it isn’t just live with it. If it shows, you need to replace the lens as a unit.

I know it. It not visible on most photos becouse of electronic correction made by camera automaticly, but visible very well on video, where speed so fast that camera correction is not possible
@anatolin Without a new lens, you can't fix it unless you can have the front glass recoated. And that's if it can be refinished.
Of course I need a new front glass. I can order making a new front glass. But I don't know how Canon assemble it with inner barrel of camera.
In the attached media file, you can see the front barrel of the camera with the front cover removed. You can see the scratches on the front glass and the dust that may do the scratches when the protective curtains closing. I think it's not deep scratches and I can polish it when remove glass
