Night blindness is also known as Nyctalopia, which can be defined as condition in which an individual may not be able to see properly at night or in poor light visibility.

Nyctalopia is not an eye condition itself but it is a combination of different conditions or signs related with eye visibility.

Nyctalopia effects the visibility power of an individual thus effecting his eye sight which becomes markedly increased at night or when there is low light levels for eye to perform properly.

No, vitamin A does not give you night vision.

Fun fact: this myth dates back to the second world war, when an English pilot got captured and questioned by the Germans, why they were hitting planes so well at night with their Flak.

In order to not spill out the secret that England had developed a radar system, he invented the vitamin A story.
