Nanofilm Clarity AR lens cleaner was developed specifically for anti-reflective, superhydrophobic lenses.
VALLEY VIEW, Ohio—Nanofilm has developed Clarity AR, a lens cleaner designed specifically for anti-reflective, superhydrophobic lenses. It wets the surface better than traditional cleaners to lift soils and grease, according to Nanofilm, resulting in a haze-free, streak-free lens.

“Clarity AR is a next-generation cleaner developed for today’s advanced coatings and lenses,” noted Rex Talbott, Nanofilm’s director-optical products.

Nanofilm chemists created a blend of surfactant wetting agents for the Clarity AR formulation to overcome the moisture repellency and “wet out” for better cleaning. Clarity AR also removes dirt, fingerprints and other soils on superhydrophobics better than other cleaners, the company said. Nanofilm chemists have developed a blend of specially selected surfactants to better bond to, break up, emulsify and lift soils off the lens and into the liquid. The dirt remains held in suspension, so it’s easily wiped away without being re-deposited.

Industry testing shows no lens cleaner is more effective or safe than Clarity AR. In addition, Nanofilm laboratories perform additional tests to assure the highest level of effective cleaning.

Clarity AR is available in multiple product formats.
