No, and Vitamin A will not necessarily improve your eyesight. It is known to effect your visual purple used in night vision. If you lack Vit A, I am sure that will enhance your eye sight.

No. But eating dark green leafy vegetables will help keep you and your eyes healthy.
And don't take Vit A supplements, Vit A is toxic is surpirsingly small doses. Get your Vit A from fruits and veggies, not from a pill bottle.

NO. But eating fruits and veggies that are red will. tomatos, peppers, grapes, watermelons, etc. they have lutein.
But if you stare at a green spot for a few seconds intently and then move your eyes onto a white piece of paper, your vision will give you the exact opposite color on the color wheel. COOL.

that is true for people with ASTIGMATISM... the reflection of the Green Color especially from a leaf under sunlight helps in correcting your eyesight...

It depends on the vegetable like spinach but also depends on your health. Any fruit or vegetable are the best choice to keep a long and healthy life.
