Couldnt be more wrong?

Hi there. 

If you think the only function of light is to enable us to see, you couldn’t be more wrong because it affects us both physically and mentally.  

The underlined part above means "you are wrong / you are mistaken? What's the function of "more" there?

Thanks.

You could not be more wrong. (There is no situation where your opinion could be worse that the one you have now.)
