My own optometrist attributed my improved eyesight to reduced inflammation and increased lutein (both of which came from me changing my diet to the opposite of a carnivore diet).
Your eyesight improved when you started eating vegetarian?

A little before, actually, but it was after I started trying to eat healthier, which largely involved adding lots of greens to my diet.

It was a pretty profound experience for me. I doubt I’d be such an advocate for dietary improvement without it.
The way it was explained to me is that inflammation was causing elevated pressure inside my eye, which was physically warping my lens.
