My eyes were never in line with my frames. Got so used to that I rarely noticed - until a PT pointed out my shorter right leg and put me on a 1/2" heel lift. I guessed half that should work out about right as a shim over my cleat and made said shim from 1/4" aluminum plate. Seat up an 1/8". Got on and "OMG! My eyes are right on center." Told my PT. Heard words to the effect of "that's exactly what I would have recommended."
