As uktotty advises, polish out the cloudiness.
Go on youtube and search for cloudy headlight polish and it will give you full instructions on how to do it.
Most people use a DA Polisher but you can very easily do it manually with a lot of elbow grease.

I use a rubbing compound which you can get anywhere with a little bit of water sprayed on,  I follow that with toothpaste and water, followed by a plastic wax, works fine but it's not permanent.
