The influence of the ambient environment on the state of the polished surface of optical glass is determined. It was found that the admissible storage times of polished optical articles prior to coating deposition or gluing is less than the value set by industry standards. A change in the storage conditions at a given limit of production can result in a change in the state of the polished surfaces of optical parts.
