Do I? No. I am Russian Orthodox, and our Bishops do not wear rings. When we ask the Bishop's blessing, we lay our right hand (open hand, palm up) over our left hand, and gold them in front of our chest area; the Bishop will make the Sign of the Cross over us, then lay his right hand on our hands, at which time we kiss his hand.
Roman Catholics kiss the ring of the Bishop-any Bishop, "arch" or not...and, of course, the Pope and Cardinals...who are, after all, Bishops too.

For one's own bishop or archbishop (and cardinals), the protocol is to kneel on one's left knee and kiss the extended ring.
