Please explain what it means if your sclera is quite yellow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible liver ill: If you sclera was white and now has become yellow, the most common cause is liver disease with staining of the tissue (jaundice) by the unmetabolized chemicals ordinarily taken care of by a normal liver. See you doctor right away for this.
