Carrots are good for your eyes (particularly night vision).

For what it's worth, vitamin A is good for your eyes, particularly night vision. However, the carrot thing was in fact a lie. While carrots do have vitamin A, vegetables are not a good source of it; you need a meat-based source in order for it to be readily available to your body (sorry vegans--fortunately, it can be supplemented with pills). And no matter how much of it you eat, you will not get super night vision.
