Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.
I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.
It seems from the history that you are having problem of yellowish discoloration of white part of the eye. I guess you are pointing towards the white part of the eye and not pupil which is usually black in color.
The commonest cause for yellow discoloration of eye is jaundice. Since you are not having symptoms of jaundice and all tests are normal no need to worry.
Yellowish discoloration is seen some times normally also and it is called as muddy conjunctiva. If this is the condition then no need to worry as it will not cause any problem. There is no curative treatment for this condition but use of decongestant eye drops will help.
If possible do send a photo of the eyes so that I can confirm the diagnosis and answer more accurately.
Hope the information is helpful to you.
THANK YOU
