Meters can be used; however, in practice, such distance are usually measured in parsecs, or (in popular astronomical literature) in light-years.

How do astronomers use parallax to describe how we measure the distance to other stars?

Astronomers use parallax to measure the distance to other stars by observing how a star appears to shift its position against the background of more distant stars as the Earth orbits the Sun. By measuring this apparent shift, astronomers can calculate the distance to the star based on the angle of the shift and the known distance between the Earth and the Sun.
