...but my biggest bugbear is still concentration. I have a very hard time making my eyes move evenly from left to right over lines of text. It's easiest between 2 and 7 am. I don't know why.

Possibly this is just me taking idiomatic speech too literally again, but it sounds like you should try holding the book upside down and reading.
