Lewis followed up victories over Nigel Heydon and Robert Thornton with a clinical display to see off Wayne Jones in straight sets at London's Alexandra Palace.
The Stoke superstar hit 12 from 18 attempts at doubles during the win and dropped only four legs against Jones as he remains on course to become only the second player, after Phil Taylor, to retain the PDC World Championship title.
Lewis will now play Terry Jenkins in the quarter-finals on Friday, after the Ledbury ace overcame Justin Pipe 4-1 with a high-quality display which saw the seven-time major finalist average almost 103.
Last year’s runner-up Gary Anderson is now through to the last 16 after being pushed hard by South African Devon Peterson in their second round encounter.
The emerging star from Cape Town hit back from losing the opening set to win the second, and after Anderson took a 3-1 lead he also took set five to give the Scot a scare.
Anderson completed the win in style with finishes of 134, 98 and 124 for a trio of 12-darters in set six to set up a third round clash with Colin Lloyd on Thursday.
Lloyd had overcome Coventry's emerging star Scott Rand 4-1 earlier on Wednesday, hitting a 167 finish at a key time in the victory, while Michael van Gerwen and Simon Whitlock also progressed with five-set triumphs over Mervyn King and Steve Beaton respectively.
