Yellow tinge

Hi all. Hope your enjoying this beautiful sunny day.

I have compensated liver cirhossis and touch wood apart from fatigue, muscle pain and low grade HE I am feeling v well. My bilirubin slightly up so have slight yellow tinge to whites of eyes as expected but what I wondered was if there were any drops that would help mask the tinge for a wedding I am going to?

Hi Annie

That might be difficult because the yellow is probably in the corner of your eyes?

I can’t think drops would work but what do I know!

So I googled re contact lenses and the best I could find were these:-

allaboutvision.com/contacts...

And even these probably won’t cover the area you are worried about ☹️.

Maybe some very lightly coloured sunglasses? Or even transition glasses which seem to me to have a light tint indoors that would probably hide your slight discolouration?

I know nothing of course except my own experience with glasses and what I have googled!

Good luck

Angus

Just saw your post. I have had the same problem with yellowish tinged outer eyes even though I haven't been jaundiced for years. I found the following on Pinterest!

Haven't tried them all, but oregano tea and tomato juice helped immensely. Wasn't a "quickfix" unfortunately, but within about 9 or 10 days I saw a difference in the whites of my eyes.

Hope this helps in time!

Thank you so much for the advice in happy to try anything. I hadn't thought tomato juice for some reason thought it had high salt content. X

There are a few low sodium juices available, plus my favorite V-8 low sodium (in the sgates). I'm curious to know if this works for you!
