Spoke to an optometrist about how to check this this morning.

1. Look at an object some distance away with both eyes.
2. use your finger to cover said point.
3. Cover one eye and then the other. The eye for which your finger remains covering the object is the dominant one.

My test determines which is your aiming eye, which is what you will dominate with when trying to hit a moving target.

I attended a fascinating talk a few years ago about dyslexia as the company I worked for were championing a Dyslexia charity, they put everyone through the same test and explained that generally people are same hand same eye - they were suggesting that only a small percentage of the population have opposites.

I am right handed but left eye dominant, so was the girl next to me, we were the only people in the room to have opposites out of about 30 so did the test a few times to make sure! 

I asked a question to the person giving the presentation as it just so happened that both of us had played a lot of sports that did involve hitting stances where you were right side but left eye forward so I wondered if playing the sports for a number of years might have lead to the dominant eye being the one furthest forward, the presenter said that we would have been that way anyway

Studies have been done in South Africa on cricketers, I can't find the website anymore, but I seem to recall the findings were that it overall didn't make a huge difference.

sorry, my test is a rubbish one I copied from the internet before rushing into a meeting. Tim's is much better

[Bez013]

The test we did involves getting a piece of card or paper with a hole in the middle held at arms length, focus on something on the wall or a distant object and slowly draw the card back towards your face, whichever eye the hole ends up over is the dominant eye.

I am right handed and right eye dominant. Could be a reason I feel most comfortable playing right arm over and least comfortable playing right arm around (more comfortable playing left arm over).

I suppose I need to add "are you any good as a batsman?" too or perhaps "do you bat in the top 5 for your team?" or something, I am not sure. But given the responses so far, my theory isn't up to much

please can more people do the survey!!!

[Opener]

The easiest test I found online was join your thumbs and index fingers to create a small hole/triangle (less than 2 inches diameter). Focus on a distant object. Close each eye one at a time. The eye which, when closed, will hide the object is your dominant eye.

I usually play in the top 4. Open most often.
