Your description about yellow stain in eyes seems not be consistent with icteric sclera (staining of sclera by bilirubin pigment). See your PCP who can run a simple blood test evaluating liver function to be sure.

Even with no known history of liver disease, yellowing of the whites of the eyes often indicates jaundice, which can be a sign of a problem with the liver or gallbladder. A simple blood test can tell whether you have jaundice. You should see your primary doctor for evaluation. Do not delay. Good luck.
