Dr. Jason Hershorn came in to talk about some common eye myths - and how to keep our eyes healthy.

MYTHS:
1. Eating carrots will improve your vision
2. Sitting too close to the TV will damage your eyes
3. You only need an eye exam if you have an eye problem
4. Children will outgrow crossed or misaligned eyes
5. Contact lenses can prevent nearsightedness from getting worse
