Oh oh,
Taking eye pieces apart is a bad idea, as far as I know, the lenses in
the eyepiece are precisely collimated, so unless you put them back in
exactly as they came out (rotation wise), you're in trouble.
I don't know how you'd fix this without a lot of hastle.

I have both a 9 mm and a 12 mm cordless. A while ago, I had a little
accident with the kids and both got wet inside, so I took them apart and
cleaned them with Zeiss lens cleaning fluid, cotton, etc... They are
clean, but they don't seem to achieve good focus now. Anyone can give
me some tips on how to take them apart again and put them together in a
way that they work fine again?

Thanks!

Christian.
