Blueish Grey eye whites

Recently my wife and I noticed that the whites of our 2 month old's eyes are a blueish grey color.  Is that anything to be concerned about?  Our doctor dismisses most of our questions and since she's been born we've found more help from articles and forums on the internet.

Thin sclera in a child, shows through the dark lawyer under it (choroid). goes away as the child gets older and the sclera thicker and whiter and more opaque. Same questioned asked here 3 times in last three months.
