There are tons of brands for lens cleaners...some un branded...or no name really! Unless you have soiled or finger prints on the lens the isopropyl solution is good enough or most no name lens cleaners (which is pretty much the same thing as airconvent mentioned).
If lenses are not soiled or finger printed, just dust them with a blower. Don't use your mouth to blow cause you may get specks of saliva on them. Also avoid lens tissues unless it's soiled. Also before using any solution to clean a lens blow it first to remove particles, then wipe lightly and let the solution evaporate. A little goes a long way!
