    I really want to start shooting with both eyes open. However I appear to have no eye dominance. I think it's known as "central eye dominance". If I do the standard eye dominance test of making a circle with my hands outstretched in front of my face, about 50% of the time my right eye is the dominant eye, and 50% of the time it's my left eye.

    If I draw my handgun and line up with my right eye, and it is currently acting as the dominant eye I will see a proper sight picture for a few seconds. Then all the sudden my left eye takes over and I'm looking at the left side of the gun. A few seconds later my right eye takes back over and I have a proper sight picture again.

    Everytime I draw my gun it's a 50/50 chance on which eye will be in control at that time.

    Is there any way around this, or am I stuck shooting with one eye?

    Talk to an ophthalmologist and see just what your eye condition is.
