A member asked:
What causes yellowing of eyes that is not jaundice or pinguecula?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few suggestions: Those would be two major causes but if there is a resolving hemorrhage, then sometimes the blood can go from red to yellow before disappearing. Alternatively, people with light freckles or normal pigmentation (from having dark skin) can have a yellowish looking eye, as well.
