Your left eye is myopic and your right eye is hyperopic. This is reffered to as monofocal vision if uncorrected. If you are past age 45, consider yourself blessed because your accommodation will be lost (presbyopia). Hence you can selectively suppress binocular rivalry between both eyes and use the particular eye for the appropriate target distance.
Many people get intraocular lenses, laser refractive surgery, spectacles, or contact lenses to obtain monofocal vision.

However, if you still have accommodation, consider corrective spectacles or contacts to correct you to emmetropia. That way you will still have full accommodation as well.

My eye doctor himself was both nearsighted and farsighted. You are what you are... not everyone is the same so who's to say what's normal. As long as you can get it corrected, don't worry about it.

It's called googly eyed! Like a pet rock you buy at a road side stand in Nebraska.
