Put the eyepiece in your pocket or back in the case, but I would leave the caps off other wise you will trap dampness inside on the lens.

After the nights use we leave our eyepieces on a table inside the house uncapped for several hours to dry out. If the dew is bad we leave them uncapped till the morning.

I have seen several eyepieces and filters ruined because they have been capped when damp. It is not worth the risk.

The best way to protect your most used charts is to laminate them.
