With a majority of the population, "eye" dominance coincides with "hand" dominance. So if you're right-handed, chances are, you are also right-eye-dominant. (Of course there are exceptions)
If you are properly shooting a rifle/shotgun right-handed, your right cheek should be resting on the top of the buttstock. This will naturally put your right eye in line with the top of the barrel of the rifle or shotgun. The front and rear sights of a rifle are lined up atop the barrel. The front pip of the shotgun is also on the top of the barrel.
The situation is similar when shooting a pistol. If you are shooting a pistol right-handed--right arm extended out in front of you--it is more natural for a majority of people to have the right eye lined up with the right arm. However, since the front and rear sights are closer together on pistols, it is not difficult to switch eyes without switching hands.
The rule of thumb would be that you use the right eye with the right hand, the left eye with the left hand. Many successful shooters shoot right handed but left eyed and vice-versa...but they are definitely in the minority.

What hand should be your bow hand if you are right eyed dominate?
Yes, it does make a difference. When an archer is right-eye dominant and shooting right-handed (or left-handed/left-eye), the arrow sits under (or almost under) the dominant, or "aiming", eye; the arrow is often used in aiming, especially in "instinctive" shooting, i.e., without the aid of sights. Being left-eye dominant while shooting right-handed (or right-eye/left-handed) moves the "aiming" eye to the extreme side of the arrow, affecting accuracy. The only way to counter-act the affect of using the "wrong" eye for aiming is to close the dominant eye and force the non-dominant eye to take over; this is not really an option when shooting "instinctively", because both eyes are needed for depth-perception.Cross-dominance (left-eye/right-hand or right-eye/left-hand) is not such a problem when using sights, but it can be.The best way to solve the problem is for the cross-dominant archer to re-train her/himself to shoot with the "wrong" hand. If right-handed, learn to shoot left-handed; if left-handed, learn to shoot right-handed. it may be awkward at first, but the rewards in increased accuracy are worth it.
