I'm on the road and don't have my books with me, but I was just glancing at the fishbase.org flatfish taxonomy:

http://www.fishbase.org/identification/familieslist.cfm?spines=&fins=&ordnum=61&areacode=&classnum=6&c_code=

It looks like turbots are left-eyed, and soles are right-eyed. The fish in Chris's pictures looks right-eyed, no?
