“Carrots are good for your eyesight” is a myth that originates from WWII. The Brits had radar and didn’t want the Germans to know how they were “seeing” the German planes, so they started a propaganda campaign to make the Germans think that British sentries ate lots of carrots, giving them better eyesight to see the planes. All rubbish, of course, but carrot sales skyrocketed afterwards.
