I haven’t seen this hydrophobic yet, but some of my glasses are afraid of water hehe. jk. I disagree with letting the dust stay and your brain will adjust...it’s just increasingly opaque and the clear light is good. Here’s my best practice, I think the main problem is getting enough soapy water on them to lift all the gunk off and not scratch the lens in the cleaning, so I rinse them first under fast water, then I use dishwashing detergent, foam it up in my hands and using my foamy fingers clean the lenses and the frame and do it twice, rinse good, then dry with a good micro fiber like they give you at opticians shops. I feel happy when I see nice and clear.
Well that’s going to a level I wouldn’t have been able to imagine before. microfiber cloths were a great advancement over using a towel or paper towel, which didn’t wick up the water as well, and sometimes might scratch the lens. I have seen differences in quality between different microfibers...but going next level to no need for a cloth sounds great.

This was the main thing that made cleaning them annoying for me. With hydrophobic it’s great but needing to do this.

I’ve also seen stores use Kimwipes to clean lenses.
