Really useful comment, what is "that" and how is "that" wrong?

Parent is confusing a focal point with where your eyes are focusing. Your vision gets corrected entirely, not just for certain focal lengths.

It's just a comment that so wrong it's not wrong.

My vision gets corrected entirely, that doesn't mean that there isn't a focal lenght at which my eyes are most comfortable.

Prescription glasses restore your range of focus to original which is why I said it aims for looking at far objects, at relaxed eyes.

Problem with myopia is that you overwork your eyes' muscles by staying in close focal lengths too long.
