Answer 3

No.  That is not even a myth.

Answer 4

No.. In fact, they make you see better in the dark as well as in the daylight too.

Carrots are a fantastic source of Vitamin A (one medium carrot provides ten times the very low RDA of 600mcg) which plays a vital role in eye health. Indeed, it is this very vitamin that transmits what our eyes see to our brain. Vitamin A deficiency can lead to a whole host of vision problems including glaucoma, night blindness and short sightedness.

Thank you.
