Do my eyes look yellow or am I just overthinking

Do my eyes look yellow at all? I just noticed this while I was doing makeup and it’s been worrying me. My pee isn’t dark at all but I’m just worried. I’m not sure if it’s in my head, not sure.

It's in your head !!!!

You are obviously googling so l suggest you look on the RELIABLE sites NHS and the liver trust and see images of what jaundice eyes REALLY look like !!

You don't have to pull your eyelids back to see true jaundice as it's the whole white of the eye. Everyone's eyes arn't pure white at the edges or under the lids and have this slight creamy tint.

The BLT advise that it is actually against forum rules to post photos for comment but often share the NHS page on jaundice which shows what a genuinely jaundiced eye looks like.

If you have got a concern about your liver health, check with your doctor and get tests done.

Hi Gray1745, if you have jaundice eyes you will know!!! I lived with my eyes being yellow for alomost 9 months before my transplant and my urine ranged from dark yellow to the colour of the famous scottish soft drink Irn Bru. If you have any concerns about your health and especially your liver please make an appointment with your local GP as caught soon and with the correct treatments and lifestyle changes you can reverse some damage.

Hi Gray1745, just a gentle reminder that community guidelines state that no photos are to be posted. This is because no one can diagnose you on this forum (I've removed the photo). Is there a reason you think you could have jaundice? If you are worried about developing liver disease, could I suggest booking an appointment to discuss your concerns with your GP. Warmest wishes
