Blue sclera

What are some other symtoms of blue sclera

by John C Hagan III, MD, FACS, Oct 06, 2007 07:56PM
Blue sclera is a "sign" not a symptom.  Causes of blue sclera are too numerous to list. See an Ophthalmologist to determine if you have a problem, this is an MD physician that takes care of the eye.

An extended list of the causes of blue sclera can be found in : Ocular Differential Diagnosis by Frederick Hampton Roy MD (Williams & Wilkins publisher). 6th Edition page 265-268
