Blue sclera were identified in 2 patients in the absence of anemia. Blue sclera as an indication of iron-deficiency has sensitivity of 89, specificity of 64 and accuracy of 82%. It is an additional sign in identification of anemia. [unboundmedicine.com]

Bone and blood disorders also on the list include Diamond–Blackfan anemia, severe iron deficiency anemia, Juvenile Paget's disease, and acid phosphatase deficiency. [3] Most cases of OI are inherited from a parent. [kjophthal.com]
- Pallor
Three observers independently graded the signs of blue sclerae and mucosal pallor as absent, equivocal, definite, or striking. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Osler 1 and confirmed recently in adults. 2 In these studies, blue sclerae appeared more sensitive and equally specific as an indicator of IDA than mucosal pallor. 4 Because IDA is common in young children even in industrialized countries, and since infants [pediatrics.aappublications.org]
Scleral changes are associated with systemic disease and metabolic conditions such as anemia, liver disease and osteogenesis imperfecta. 1–3 These changes include pallor, blue-tinged sclera and scleral icterus. [academic.oup.com]

- Fracture
The mother had had a femoral-neck fracture at the age of 3 years and fractures of the elbow and wrist at the age of 10 and 13 years, respectively. All fractures occurred after minimal trauma. [nejm.org]
Individuals are often of normal height, have blue sclerae and develop fractures after ambulation. Type II is most severe and results in perinatal death from multiple intrauterine fractures and cardiorespiratory compromise. [empr.com]
In case of bone and spinal deformities, and long bone fractures can be necessary surgical management. At last, it is recommendable physiotherapy in order to improve mobility and reduce the risk of fractures. [iofbonehealth.org]

- Osteoporosis
Most common genetic cause of osteoporosis. Longer use of bisphosphonates can be associated with nonunion after fractures and abnormal remodeling. [dailyrounds.org]
In bone, this defect results in osteoporosis, thus increasing the tendency to fracture. Besides bone, type I collagen is also a major constituent of dentin, sclerae, ligaments, blood vessels, and skin 4. [radiopaedia.org]
The reader should be aware that the same term is used when writing about the condition osteoporosis. Both conditions are associated with fractures but osteoporosis is a very different disorder that is very common, and is not an HDCT. [hypermobility.org]
His medical history included 27 bone fractures before age 12 years, multiple tendon ruptures, osteoporosis, a mechanical aortic valve replacement, and recurrent corneal erosions. [jaoa.org]

Marshall-Stickler syndrome may exist in the differential diagnosis of keratoglobus with blue sclera. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Blue sclera does not mean blue baby As per expert pediatricians, the majority of the cases do not show any complication in the long run. The sclera of the eyeballs is born thin. [m.dailyhunt.in]

Oral and intravenous biphosphonate are commonly prescribed for all types of OI.7 Regular surveillance for hearing impairment every 3–5 years is recommended for all types of OI after adolescence as disease progression is invariable.6 Footnotes Md Shukri [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Psychiatrical
- Suggestibility
He also suggests a relation between myasthenia gravis, and osteogenesis imperfecta. Smith [2] has reported an isolated cellular blue naevus of sclera, along with retinal detachment. [ijps.org]
The doctors suggest not to worry as the sclera regains its natural thickness and turns out to be white in the long run. With the formation of the bones in the babies, the sclera becomes thicker and stronger. The bluish tinge eventually disappears. [m.dailyhunt.in]
I suggest that since there are worrisome possibilities with a blue sclera, that I would schedule that pediatric appointment sooner than later. Good luck. [zocdoc.com]
The external appearance can suggest buphthalmos but intraocular pressure is normal. The sclerae are bluish suggesting that the connective tissue defect is more widespread among eye tissues. The lens is not hypermobile, however. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Prognosis
Prognosis is very variable depending on type ranging from being uniformly lethal from type II to a slight reduction in life expectancy for type I. [radiopaedia.org]
Prognosis The prognosis for a person with Osteogenesis Imperfecta varies greatly depending on the number and severity of symptoms. Life expectancy is not affected in people with mild or moderate symptoms. [bbcbonehealth.org]
Outlook (prognosis) How well a person does depends on the type of OI they have. Type I, or mild OI, is the most common form. [kjophthal.com]
Etiology
I believe this supports the theory that these lesions have a general relative etiology, and the findings in this case demonstrating various stages of the same disease indicate that it is not due to parathyroid disease. [mdedge.com]
Etiology Blue sclera is the most consistent manifestation of OI, which results from a mutation in COLIA1 and COL1A2, coding for type I procollagen. However, classifications of this condition (types IV–VI) have been identified with normal sclerae. [link.springer.com]

Epidemiology
Genetic epidemiology, prevalence, and genotype–phenotype correlations in the Swedish population with osteogenesis imperfecta [published correction appears in Eur J Hum Genet. 2015;23(8):1112. doi:10.1038/ejhg.2015.129]. [jaoa.org]
Epidemiology Incidence is approximately 1/15,000-1/20,000 live births but this may be underestimated, as milder forms can evade diagnosis [ 7 ]. It is the leading cause of lethal short-limbed dwarfism and skeletal dysplasia. [patient.info]
This is due to the sclera being thinner than normal because the defective Type I collagen is not forming correctly. [2] Epidemiology In the United States, the incidence of OI is estimated to be one per 20,000 live births. [kjophthal.com]
Pathophysiology
However, in the past 10 years discoveries of further (mainly recessive) causative genes have lent support to a predominantly collagen-related pathophysiology [ 1 ]. [patient.info]
An estimated 20,000-50,000 people are affected by OI in the United States. [3] Pathophysiology People with OI are born with defective connective tissue, or without the ability to make it, usually because of a deficiency of Type I collagen. [kjophthal.com]
Prevention
Early detection and treatment could prevent vision loss. See an eye care professional right away if you have a sudden change in vision, if everything looks dim, or if you see flashes of light. [icdlist.com]
Dermatologic management mainly focuses on prevention. Patients should be advised to avoid harsh skin products and be conscious of avoiding trauma and resultant scarring. [empr.com]
People with OI are encouraged to exercise as much as possible to promote muscle and bone strength, which can help prevent fractures. [oif.org]
