Nevertheless, I have seen it. There are right handers who are left eye
dominant who turn their heads into an un-natural position so they can aim
with their left eye. They would probably do better to shoot left handed.

The viewfinder on a dslr tends to be towards the left of the camera body,
whereas for a right-handed person the sights of a rifle are just above your
right cheek when you're aiming. It would be impossible to use your left eye.

Right handed, left eye. Actually a very interesting question. I feel very
awkward if I use my my right eye yet, strangely enough, with a rifle, I
aim with my right eye. Sorry to hear about the cataracts but it comes to
us all eventually.

A little informal PDML survey...
Q: Are you right-handed or left-handed (or ambidextrous)

Q: When you use a camera viewfinder, which eye do you put to the
viewfinder?
A:
---------------
I'm curious because I am right-handed and have always (unthinkingly)
put the viewfinder to my right eye. However, a recent eye examination
has discovered that I have cataracts and my right eye is significantly
worse. With a new prescription they say they can get me to 20/25 and
I'll need cataract surgery eventually, but I'm wondering if, in the
meantime, I can successfully train myself to use my left eye to the
viewfinder.
