    another option which is better in my humble opinion is a sweat band and a piece of plastic or card over part of the non aiming eye.

    I use half of an eley ammo box lid

    I would also recommend going with a blinder fitted to either a sweat band or shooting glasses. Dosen't need to be that big, just blot out the view of the non aiming eyes view of the foresight/target. If you get the size right it won't interfere too much with your view of the wind flags, well the ones to your left anyway, assuming your shooting right handed. Handy for us that most ranges are generally north facing with a prevailing westerly wind, so that is usually seeing the down wind flags.
