Hello Brian,
I doubt that there are very many eyepieces that are sealed well enough to prevent fungal attack in Laotian climate. I previously bought a Vixen LV that had a similar affliction of fungal infestation, I dismantled it, making sure every not to mess up the order of elements, and washed the affected surfaces in isopropyl alcohol…… worked perfectly ever since.
Expose the eyepiece to lots of UV light to make sure that it doesn’t grow back…
Even here in Canberra’s dry conditions, one has to allow all dew to evaporate prior to storing optics.

Cheers,
