I'm wondering if what you're seeing is uncorrected astigmatism, which often comes with nearsightedness. Before I got a prescription that corrected for that, too, moving my head laterally or rotating it would cause text to swim in exactly the way you describe (differently in each eye, too).
Maybe visual acuity has something to do with the differences seen. I'm at 20/12 and 20/15 uncorrected.
