Not much to add to Franks post, same info in other words. I cannot imagine trying to close one eye with irons.

Even with a scoped rifle it is so much faster to get on target with both eyes open for fast shooting. Having both eyes open gives you a much wider field of view to see game in a hunting situation or threats in a SD situation. A lot of people incorrectly assume that a scope is a handicap up close and fast. Only if you're using it wrong.

When only using one eye it severely limits depth perception making it hard to accurately estimate distances to targets.

For a handful of shots it isn't much of a factor, but eye strain is a problem after a lot of shooting.
