In Visual Studio 2015 all the Zoom Levels are synced together when I am coding.
This is great when working on the same monitor, however when I have a higher resolution monitor and my laptop monitor then this is rather annoying as the zoom levels make the text look alright on one monitor, but too large on another monitor.
Is there any way of turning off the Zoom Level syncing?, so I can select my zoom level per code window?

Visual Studio provides commands—View. ZoomIn (Ctrl+Shift+.) and View. ZoomOut (Ctrl+Shift+,)—that increase and decrease the zoom level in various parts of the IDE.
View > Appearance > Zoom In (Ctrl+=) - increase the Zoom level. View > Appearance > Zoom Out (Ctrl+-) - decrease the Zoom level. View > Appearance > Reset Zoom (Ctrl+Numpad0) - reset the Zoom level to 0.
Use keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+Shift+period (zoom in) and Ctrl+Shift+comma (zoom out) Type a zoom level directly in the the zoom control in the bottom left corner of the editor. Select a common zoom level from the dropdown list in the zoom control.
Whether you meant that 'zoom in' and 'zoom out' feature in VS2013 Text Editor described in here: Visual Studio 2013: Zooming In and Out of Text in the Editor? If yes, the default setting for 'zoom' is 100%. You can set it in the combo box at the bottom left of the IDE like the blog suggested.
I know this is not quite what you are looking for, but you can make windows do the scaling for you. By setting different scaling levels on the two monitors (only works with Windows 8.1), you don't even have to manually adjust the code zooming (another upside of this is that not only the code becomes readable, but the UI is scaled, too).
