How could an old guy’s vision improve like this if not for the carrot juice?

The eye injections?

My eyesight improved steadily from age 55 or so to age 70., so much so that I was able to wear soft contacts for the first time. Nothing to do with carrots or supplements. Then cataracts caught up with me so I got the lens implants. Now I can see very well, thank you.

Were you, in younger years, myopic (near-sighted)?

Then it is quite possible that Presbyopia (the natural, age-related reduction in visual acuity most people start experiencing in their 40s and 50s; essentially a "stiffening" of the eye's lens) can lead to a slight shift in the focal point; the eye's focussing power changes, making distant objects appear clearer.

As a young man, I needed prescription glasses with -2.5 diopters. Now, in my senior years, I can "get by" with -2.0 diopters. (However, it is difficult now to focus on near objects.)
