1. Dry eyes

A form of dry eye known as xerophthalmia is caused by a deficiency of vitamin A.

The deficiency can also lead to night blindness by stopping the production of the pigments your retinas need to function properly.

These problems make a lot of sense since doctors recommend beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, for optimal eye health.

Boost your vitamin A by eating eggs, orange and yellow veggies, and fruits and beta-carotene sources such as broccoli and spinach.
