One thing that worked for me was to "black out" (many ways to do this) the rear sight, and keep a dot on the front. It was very easy to get quick sight alignment with both eyes open. Some sights work better than standard 3 dots for keeping both eyes open. XS Big Dot, and Heine straight 8 both stand out to me.

I used to shoot with one eye opened, but once I switched to both open, my shooting got better and my groups tightened up a bunch. YMMV.
