Usually if you look real close you can see cracks in the surface of the plastic, it gets oxidized and hardened by the sun and starts to crack. Yes, water will affect your lights, if you don't want to spend the money to buy new ones, you could take the assembly out and drill a small drain hole in the bottom so the water could run out, then put the assembly back into the body.

Drill three holes, two on the bottom, one on each side of the lens, one in the highest spot of the lens.
This allows the water to drain out and cross ventilation to prevent the lens from fogging over.
Use the smallest drill bit you can, they dont need to be big holes.
I did this to a Ford van, the corner lens filled with water, which is common on the Econoline vans.

From the inside right?
And it’s fine that the water then drains inside there somewhere?
