I do know we have to see it as 'his punishment', but there wasn't anything hinting towards blindness, it could just aswell been any other handicap. It just seemed like they gave him some random things to punish him.

It feels it wasn't given enough thought. The closest to an explanation i've read so far, was it being because he had to look people in to the eyes when extracting their void, although that was discarded halfway trough the series though.

Some people hint that it comes from the crystalization of either Shu himself or Inori (taking over 'the burden'). What comes to my mind immediately is Souta. He had his whole right eye covered, but after being 'cured' doesn't show any signs of blindness, so i find it very hard to figure out where Inori's and Shu's blindness comes from.
