osteogenesis : Imperfecta is the classic blue sclera condition. Here is a long list of other blue sclera conditions: http://telemedicine.Orbis.Org/bins/volume_page.Asp?Cid=1-2897-3497-3498.

No: Blue sclerae are typically associated with Osteogenesis imperfecta, not BJHS. There are extremely rare cases of Ehlers-Danlos (dermatosparaxis type and the described spondylocheirodyplastic form) that also are associated with a blue sclerae, as well as a Marfanoid-like condition called Loeys-Dietz syndrome.
