I'm not extremely dominant in either eye as well. But you can train one of the eyes to be the dominant eye. If you are left handed train the left eye to be more dominant. You can do this by taking a piece of cellophane tape to cover the top portion of the shooting glasses over your right eye. When in a shooting stance, looking at the front sight, the tape should obscure the front sight, but leave enough of a viewing area for your periferal vision. You won't see a double image anymore and you will be training your left eye on the correct sight picture. After awhile use smaller and smaller pieces of tape until you don't need it anymore.
