Lens cleaner is something I use every day due to the fact that I have approximately $550 worth of eyeglasses perched on my nose. With age comes more and more expensive glasses - I'm up to "high refractive index" lens (to avoid the coke-bottle lens syndrome), progressives (to avoid bi- and tri-focal lines), transition (to darken outside), non-scratch, anti-reflective (cut glare), titanium frames (lightweight). With all this technology perched on my nose, I understandably want to treat these marvels of innovation with care and avoid scratches and damage. To that end, I've used "anti-reflective-coating-safe" cleaners and microfiber cloths for years.
Purosol Molecular Lens Cleaner is impressive...and different from other cleaners. When you first spray it on a lens, you know you're working with a different cleaner from those you pick up at the local vision center. I was surprised to see the spray bead up on the lens; other cleaners may foam slightly and there is evidence of surfactants (the other sprays spread across the lens with no beading). This beading of the Purosol had me concerned at first (no solvent effect of breaking surface tension), but not to worry. The product insert states "Purosol's solvent-free formula used the latest in green chemistry to break the molecular bonds that dust, dirt and grime use to adhere to the lens" and it works beautifully. I ran several tests where, after an active day, and plenty of dust, cooking spatters or high pollen counts, I tried regular solvent-based cleaner on one lens, Purosol on the other. In every case, the Purosol lens was spotless with no streaks - every bit as clean as the other lens, but Purosol does it using, as the manufacturer states, "organic plant extracts instead of traditional solvents and contains no alcohol, ammonia or detergent and is free of silicone, graphite and glycerin. It is also streak-free and leaves an anti-static barrier which repels dust..." The bottle of Purosol comes with its own cleaning cloth and it seems to work better with the included cloth than the microfiber cloth my lenses came with.
With regards to the "dust repellent" claim - I don't know. For several days, I cleaned my lenses in the morning, again, one with Purosol and one with a solvent-based lens cleaner, then went about my daily business. By the end of the day, I would examine both lenses to see if I could detect any difference in the amount of fine dust particles on the lens - there wasn't a difference that I could detect with the naked (and very near-sighted) eye. Nevertheless, I wouldn't discount this cleaner for that reason. It does an extremely good job of getting the lenses spotless, leaves no streaks and does it without toxic chemicals. That makes it a winner in my book.

One of the few products I genuinely trust with trust with expensive gearJun 04, 2009
By A. S. Donnelly
I purchased a bottle of Purosol Optical cleaner upon the recommendation of a Nikon rep for cleaning my expensive Pro glass. The product works wonders, it removes finger prints, water marks, pollens etc. completely and without streaking. As a few others have mentioned the cloth that is part of the kit can leave lint behind, but I have found that the Kinetronics Panther and Tiger cloths do wonders in combination with Purosol.
Unlike many of the cheaper lens cleaning products Purosol does is *not* solvent based. The solvents in these products run the risk of damaging lens and filter coatings. I was more than happy to find an effective quality cleaner that would not pose a risk to those coatings on expensive lenses and filters.

Best optical cleaner for your lens.Oct 22, 2008
By KK
I've been using "regular" lens cleaning solution for my SLR lens with microfiber cloth for years, and I didn't have much complaint. It's just those solutions probably are mostly distilled water, just didn't see those solutions do much on the lens itself. I just cleaned the lens with gentle elbow grease I guess... Then I heard about Purosol from my colleagues and thought to give it a try. It sprays like any other solution, but it does wipe off dirt and prints without much rubbing at all. Apply the solution to the lens (or a piece of microfiber cloth) and sort of very lightly rub the lens with circular motion, and the dirt disappears. I guess it is water-based so it does not dry immediately, but it does not leave any visible streak at all. One thing I am very impressed about is after I wipe the lens, if I blow my breath on the lens to see streaks, there are a lot fewer streaks than what I would see with other solution, or water alone. All I need to do is to very lightly buff the surface of the lens, then I don't see ANY streaks. This cleaner is totally worth the money and to protect your investment in lens, there is no better cleaning solution out there.

It works GreatAug 04, 2010
By Marcio Jose Bastos Silva
I am a photographer and use my Tokina fisheye frequently. As any photographer knows, a fisheye does not take any filter what so ever. It is easy to get it dirty with grease or other kind of dirty. I found it necessary and advisable to buy a good cleaner for my fisheye. What I basically wanted was a cleaner that was safe to the lens coatings and that does not leave any streaks. Puresol All Natural Leans Cleaner fits all my expectations. It is an excellent product. It removes greasy stains and other kinds without leaving streaks. I also found it safe for the coating of my lenses. I recommend it as safe and efficient cleaner. It worths the money you pay for. A piece of adivice for you: If you paid US$ 1,000.00 or over for you lens, why should you buy a cheap cleaner solution that can damage it? Do not take any risk!

Great Product even if pricyApr 26, 2010
By rjgsphinx
I tested this against Flents Wipe 'N Clear Eyeglass Lens Cleaner 8 fl oz (232 ml) and I really wanted to like the Flents better due to price, however, after testing them side by side for weeks I have to say I really like the Purosol cleaner better.
I tested the 2 on both my Costa Del Mar sunglasses and on all of my camera lenses and filters. The Purosol bottle and cap are much nicer, you would not think this would matter but when you are packing it the heavier plastic of the bottle matters, and the better spray cap makes a huge difference. The Purosol mists on the lens, and the Flents puts a lot of heavy drops down, so much that it foams. I truly believe that the 4oz. Purosol will last LONGER than the 8oz. Flents due to the volume of spray. Also, with my sunglasses, because of the misting action I can cover both lens at the same time, with the Flents each lens has to be sprayed separately.
As far as cleaning goes, both of these products does a great job of cleaning the lens, however the Flents, because it puts more down, requires more buffing, and if you are using a small microfiber cloth to clean it off, like the 3M Microfiber Lens Cleaning Cloth, Color May Vary, 1 Count that I used for the test, the cloth used for the Flents solution is soon wet and will not buff.
I highly recommend this product and it will now be the only lens fluid that I use.
