The idea that carrots, and food in general, might dramatically impact one’s vision has an unusual origin in that the myth comes from a WWII misinformation campaign.

Others may think surgery is never a good option, always seeking natural remedies and ignoring how scientifically reputable a given source actually is if it discusses appealing natural-sounding eye health treatments.
