I would like to create a curve from equation and revolve it to form an aspheric lens surface.  Creo does not allow me to revolve the curve from equation however, what is the preferred method of revolving/creating such a surface?

You can create it from your equation curve using a Variable Section Sweep.  See the attached files here:
