Carrots contain high levels of Beta Carotene, among other vitamins, which has been shown to be very important in maintaining good eye health. Contrary to the old wives tale, it won't necessarily improve your vision, that often has more to do with genetics. But it will improve the overall health of your eyes as well as other vital organs.

Carrots have "A", but so do a bunch of other vegetables. The eyes is just a good story to get kids to eat them

IT is a myth. I have never told a patient to eat more carrots. People get plenty of vitamin A in a normal diet and don't need anymore of it. Actually too much vitamin A can cause some serious problems.

Vitamin A is important in maintaining visual acuity and the orange color means there's tons of it.
