No.
They do contain some vitamins that are good for the eyes, but nothing can make you see in the dark
The lie comes from WW2, when a british fighter pilot became the first guy to ever shoot an enemy down at night. when asked how he could see so clearly at night the government said "because he eats a lot of carrots" instead fo the real answer "well, we have this new device called RADAR" as the germans didn't have that until well after we'd won "the battle of britain"

Not exactly. They contain carotene, a precursor of Vitamin A, which helps your eyes adjust more quickly from light to dark conditions.

No. The beta-carotene is good for the eyes though.
