Double Sight Image.

Shooting recurve with both eyes open I see two sight ring images. Being right eye dominant (checked) I have read that I should use the left image to aim with. However. If I use the left image, which is also higher than the right one, the arrow misses the 70m boss to the right. If I use the right image I get scoring arrows! I have just started using spectacles for shooting - but the bridge of the frame gets in the way of my sighting vision. So I cannot use spectacles for shooting. I wondered about the location of my sight ring. Currently it aligns with the centre of the limbs and the arrow, which aligns with the centre of the long-rod. I would have to bring it much closer, and out of alignment with the arrow, to the riser. So I have two questions. 1. Should I be using the left image? 2. Am I not turning my head far enough. I have seen images of recurve shooters not looking over the bridge of their nose when aiming. Maybe by anchor reference points 'string touches end of nose and centre of chin' are not correct! Any suggestions?
