Why is the white in my eye yellow?

Jaundice: This can be an issue with your liver. Make an appointment with your physician and he/she can find the cause of the yellowing. However many times the coloration is mild pigmentation that could be familial and may have no consequences.

Yellow spot: If its just a yellow spot on your eyes it could just be a benign pingueculum. If both eyes are yellow all over then you should have liver function checked.
