Sorry about your loss on the kit, too bad he was born like that. I have a friend that told me that her friend had a kit born with no face, so it didn't have eyes, mouth or nose, and it died a couple days later because of course it couldn't eat without a mouth.
I have two girls who were born with no eyes - they do get eye infections frequently, but are two of the sweetest girls ever. I would have thought they would be more skittish without sight, but they are not at all!
