A member asked:
Please answer! what would cause the sclera to turn gray?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several options: Greyness can come about from use of silver containing medications or cosmetics. It can also be due to thinness of the sclera which allows the underlying black lining of the eye to show through. Check with your ophthalmologist to see why this has happened if this is your eye.
