Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.

The information you have provided is inadequate to give an opinion. I would like to know the direct and indirect component of bilirubin and also the reticulocyte count before I can give my opinion.

Since the SGOT and SGPT are within normal limits, the high bilirubin could be due to Gilbert syndrome or blood issues and the above mentioned tests would help to know which of these two you have.

Jaundice is a symptom. Yellowish discoloration of eyes will be seen. High bilirubin leads to the manifestation of jaundice.
I hope that answers your question.
Regards,
Dr.R.K.
