If the normally white part of the eye becomes yellow, this can be a sign of jaundice.
Jaundice happens when bilirubin builds up in the blood. Possible causes include problems involving the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, or red blood cells.
Yellow eyes should not be ignored, particularly when they appear together with:
Dark urine
Pale stools
Abdominal pain
Nausea
Itching
Unusual tiredness
A healthcare professional can determine the cause with examination and appropriate tests.
