What Causes Yellowish Eye And Falling Asleep?

My son, now 21, had klierkoors as child. He was in and out of hospital from the age of 1. They even removed some very big glands in his neck but a month later they were back. At the age of 5 they removed his tonsils and the problem disapeared. At the age of 18 his eyes turned yellow, but the doctor told me not to worry about it and it cleared after a while. Since January his eyes are very yellow again and the doctor ordered him to cut out on protien, meat ect. Had another blood test 2 weeks ago but not cured yet. All of a sudden he would fall asleep on his feet. Last night he fell asleep after driving 5 km. He pulled of and slept for hour and half before he could drive home. Is all this connected. What shoild we do. He is on no medication?
