I think you are wrong.
VR glasses focus the images to infinity, so it's like you are looking through a window a distant countryside.
I am near sighted too and when I use oculus, I feel my Eyes prefectly relaxed and when I remove VR glasses I see better than before.

This was discussed in a previous thread, if I remember right, CV1 focus is set to 1.5 metres so better than looking at the average monitor in terms of inducing myopia. I wear older prescription (less distancy) glasses to increase the apparent focal distance to something near infinity as I find it more relaxing on my eyes (with my DK2 that is).

As an adult, you are not exposed to the risk that myopia develops or worsens. It is also genetically determined whether one develops myopia or not. But the environment conditions of the eyes are the main reasons for it's development.
I'm not sure I agree with you - I've spent 15 years staring at monitors from a foot or two away for my job, then went home and did it some more, and my eyesight has never gotten any worse. I've worn glasses for nearsightedness since I was a kid, and my prescription hasn't gotten any worse in the last 8 years though my computer usage and book reading (and in recent times, Kindle reading) have both gone up significantly. In fact my eye doctor said my eyes were very healthy, and I probably won't need reading glasses until my mid 50's.
At least from my experience, "permanent fixation of nearby objects without alternation" doesn't seem to have harmed my eyesight one bit.

First of all, it is the parents job to monitor there children. Second, Children under the age of 13 should not spend there entire day behind a computer, tv, VR headset etc. There is a reason why they say to take atleast 15 minutes of rest every 1 and a half hours of using a computer.
