Many golfers never really think about eye position in putting. They just set their eyes to a point where they feel comfortable, which for most players means having their eyes directly over the ball.
This setup, however, can cause problems. When you turn your head to look at the hole, it will appear left of its actual position, which can result in a pull for right-handed players.
Instead, you should keep your eyes over a spot just inside the ball, a few inches toward your feet. Practice a lot of short putts to get a good feel for this position, and then gradually increase to longer putts. You should notice a big difference in putting alignment and see the line more clearly when setting up on putts.
