The white part of the eye is called the sclera. It can look blue when the sclera thins out, as you are seeing the underlying tissue which is blue in colour.

Thinning may occur because of types I and II osteogenesis imperfecta imperfecta, Ehler's danlos syndrome, pseudoxanthoma elasticum and Marfan's syndrome. It may also occur through long-term use of corticosteroids.

Go to your GP to be assessed.

hmm, well did u ever go to a doctor? If it ever gets yellow it could be liver troubles etc. Take a trip to the eye doctor just to be safe. I have never headr of this...really dark blue, huh.
