Unforgiving Duelist

If there's one thing I hate about drawing anime-style, it's drawing faces from the front view. This is 'cause I suck at balancing out the eyes. Can someone give me some pointers on how to keep a character's eyes nicely straight and aligned from the front view(for the record, I can do this, occasionally, but that's a one in a million chance)? Would really appreciate it! Thanks!

I suggest drawing guide lines on the face, like you see in animation sketches, you'll get used to seeing the guide line in your head then you'll be able to draw without it, there's also redrawing it digitally, and not having to worry about getting rid of you guide lines for a while.
