Face shield has low refractive index ?

Glancing over at the face shield that I have, I notice how pleasing it is to the eye i.e. it's not really intrusive.

Is that because of it's low refractive index, or that the edges are curved and have less possibility of catching the light to reflect back at me, I suspect that it's a combination of the two ?

If it's new, it's probably because it has no scratches or marks on it to to disperse light in random directions.

A common issue with thin polymer film. But, given its current state, what would be the reason for it's low profile ?
