Hmm, I thought carrots were supposed to be the vegetable that helped your eyesight. That's what I was raised with as a kid. Ate so many carrots I thought I would turn orange. Haven't heard about Spinach. Learn something new everyday.

Lutein is a similar compound to beta carotene, but it’s a much more potent antioxidant in the eye.
I don’t recall exactly why. My optometrist is the one who explained it to me.

Cool, reminds me I need to keep adding spinach in my eggs breakfast and dinner pasta again. Been slacking...

I discovered that I didn't actually need glasses. I just needed to eat more lutein-rich foods.
Eat your spinach, nerds!
