I have used a variety of wipes to clean and/or dry my lenses over the years. This always left microscratches and damage to the AR coating over time.
Since I switched to the hand method, my lenses are in much better shape:
1) Clean hands with basic bar soap, leave soap suds on hands
2) Lightly rub lenses and frames with soapy fingers, taking care not to apply too much pressure and deposit skin oils
3) Rinse off with hot water
4) Shake glasses dry with both hands (carefully)
5) If tiny water spots bother you, or you can't wait for the remaining droplets to naturally dry, use a lint free glasses wipe to dab (not wipe) them dry
