Here's one: I'm left-handed but very near-sighted (20/100) in my dominant (left) eye. My right eye is 20/15, but getting farsighted, so front sights at arm's length are blurry. I do have glasses, but don't normally wear them because my eyes tend to balance one another out. Wearing the prescription glasses while shooting is another level of distraction.

Due to the good distance vision in the right eye, I have always been a RH shooter mainly.
