Dont eat carrots... play COD or Halo instead!
Now I dont feel so guilty when I spend my entire weekend playing video games...

Scientists at the University of Rochester in New York, found that playing action games can significantly enhance people's ability to see objects in the twilight hours, when colours gradually diminish into shades of grey.
The only previous way to improve a person's visual contrast was with contact lenses, glasses, or surgery, however playing Call of Duty, Halo, or Killzone could possibly bring benefits to "thousands of people worldwide, including those with professional activities requiring excellent eyesight, aging populations and individuals who are clinically evaluated for vision problems such as amblyopia"
The team concluded: "Video game training, therefore, may become a useful complement to eye-correction techniques that are routinely used in the clinic to improve eyesight."
