My husband has yellowing skin around his eyes.... can't figure out why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scleral icterus?: If you mean that the white of his eyes are turning yellow, then this could be scleral icterus which could indicate a problem with his liver. If the eyelid skin is yellowing, then check to see what medications or supplements/herbals he is taking. Best to see your ophthalmologist.
