NIGHT blindness was recognized as a disease entity in ancient Egypt. Moreover, literature dating from ancient times to the early 20th century contains comments that appear to indicate recognition of the existence of a dietary substance necessary for night vision. In 1913 McCollum and Davis1reported that an essential lipid-soluble substance in certain foods promoted growth in rats. They later called this substance "Fat Soluble A," to distinguish it from essential water-soluble nutrients ("Water Soluble B").
