Optical fillers fill in swirls and marring using fillers contained in the polish, these are usually Kaolin/china clay, this will leave the surface optically smoother, basic physics tells us that the angle of incidence = the angle of reflection; the smoother the surface the better the reflection.

Hope this makes more sense
