The bottom of my eyes are light yellow what should i do ?

Get an exam: A yellowish appearance of the whites of the eyes is called icterus and occurs when there is hepatitis or liver dysfunction. I would get an eye exam and a physical exam as well.

Probably normal: The whites of the eyes are not quite white on close view and there is some variability of coloration, especially in the pigmented races. Look at other members of your family and close friends to compare with yours. Old photos might give you some clues as well. As a last resort, see an ophthalmologist to see if there is any problem (which i doubt).
