No they don't come with scratch resistant lenses.
Diamond is the hardest natural material, ranking 10 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. However, there are other materials such as cubic boron nitride and lonsdaleite that are also very hard and can scratch diamond. So, while diamond is very resistant to scratching, it is not the only mineral that will not scratch.
The screen is very scratch resistant. It would actually have to take a pretty hard knock to scratch it.
