Anyone know of a place to get finished single vision 1.70 or 1.74 lenses with AR?
Thanks!

what are the prices and brands also?
Homer Optical lists a "Ultra 1.70 Aspheric AR" as a stock lens. Hoya stocks their 1.70 w/AR.
I believe Tokai Optical may have distributers that stock their 1.70 as well. I will have to dig for that.
Laramy-K has Tokai and maybe Hoya, in stock.
Thats odd!
My sheets and the Frames Lens Referrence list:
-3.00 to -10.00 w/up to -2.00 cyl.
You may want to contact DocInChina. He may have some leads as well.
My Nassau Stock price list has Nikon Lite AS 1.74 for <wholesale prices removed> . Powers Sph -3.00 to -12.00 Comb -3.00 to -10.00 Cyl to -2.00

Stockclub has 1.74 with Alize ranging from -3.00 to -10.00, with up to -2.00 cyl for a very attractive price. What more do you want?
If you want a cheaper AR (if you want to make that sacrifice), there is OSA Lite HCC ranging from -4.00 to -15.00 with a cyl of -2.00 or to total power -15.00. Really you only save a few dollars, and do not do any favours for your client. The only advantage is the extra powers.

essilor stock club
Lenstock.com has 1.70 in the powers that Fezz stated. Comes std w/ Hi-Vision and a 1.0 to 1.1CT
Here is what I found when I edged a 1.74 vs a 1.70 in a -9.00. About a 0.1mm difference in favor of the 1.74. The 1.74 chipped in a groove just like CR-39. I think that the 1.74 will only be noticably thinner at above -10.00.
1.70 is good in drills, but has a slight yellow hue.
Nassau (now ELOA stock house) carries the 1.74 branded as Nikon 5
I have Nikon5's with Ice coating....best coating ever!! I also have a 1.74 with a generic AR, it crazed after three months...third pair of lenses...still crazed.
Shore Lens carries some too. A/R only, at about 25% less than the list price for Nikon Lite 5. 888-547-4802
