This is an incredibly important piece of research that has valuable illustrative insights for all those that choose to be vegetarian. First of all, it is necessary to understand that the patient who developed the blindness was a strict vegetarian (vegan) for 13 years before he developed the problem. If he had eaten some animal protein, such as eggs, it is highly unlikely the problem would have occurred.

VIt A deficiciency.
Take care Erin
