You don't seem to be able to understand the effect of placing a lens in front of the eye on vision. As mentioned, "The prescription for my reading glasses was set so that with the ciliary muscles relaxed, my eyes are focused at 34.3 cm." That ciliary muscle relaxation without the corrective lenses and with 20/20 vision would have the eyes focused at infinity. Sadly I don't have 20/20 vision and I do wear corrective lenses.

I'm not sure if you are wilfully misunderstanding what I wrote or just so convinced of your rightness that you don't need to read for comprehension.

And for your other weird theory, both my eyes are functioning and I have a bit of an issue trying to understand why you appear to believe that having a single functioning eye would remove the need to squint when seeing nearby.
