Eating carrots improves your night vision. It can't decrease your eyeglasses/contacts prescription.

I think carrots were SUPPOSED to help your eyes because they contain something that is needed for making the rods or some other part of the eye. So theoretically they are helpful, but really you get enough of this molecule (carotene? ...could be making that up, but it's something like that) from your diet anyway so eating loads of carrots won't actually make any difference!

When you have a fever, it actually DOES make you grow a little taller, but then you shrink back once you're "healthy" again.

I prefer the direct approach. Eat them or no Playstation.
