Actually, many of the best AR lenses now include hydro/oliophobic properties that do indeed make them far easier to clean and to keep clean - especially when compared to a non A/R lens. Some also employ different technologies to minimize static attraction of particulates etc. as well. I've never seen ANY base lens do that.
I know this is commonly said, but I don't know if I completely believe it.
There is a real difference in how clean Crizal Avance lenses stay compared to any other AR I have worn. They also are extremely easy to clean, I just rinse with water. I have worn AR lenses since 1986 so I have had over 40 pairs of AR glasses.
Love Crizal. I have a pair in crizal Alize and another pair with Crizal Avance. I love the avance one more but they are both great. A bit costly. It is much easier to clean!. I have to take my Crizal lens coated glasses to the theater. It is a must!
When weighing in on costs vs product and of coarse the lab you are using, I have found I Coats stainless too be superior to that of Crizal and at a much more attractive price. DEL has a wonderful in-house AR, which I have been using for close to seven years; admittingly not as oliophobic as some of the higher end crizal products but at less than half the price. I haven't had a complaint from any of my patients. In my opinion, if your current lab is doing the work at an exceptable level and you have no desire to change, talk to their lab rep and have them bring in a sample of the AR's they offer for the entire staff to examine.
