What Causes Yellow Colored Eyelid?

I have a yellow coloured eyelid. it isn t lumpy so i don t think it is cholestoral related and the whites of my eyes are not yellow either. it s almost like an eyeshadow. my other eyelid has a smaller yellow area . could this be dietary related or even tiredness/lack of sleep? my age is 41, height 5,8 , weight 11stone. my family has a history of heart problems.
