A yellow discolouration usually points to Jaundice, however I wouldn't worry the person by immediately making this diagnosis.
The best advice, as always when it concerns medical matters, is consult a proffessional. Never assume the worst, as it may be something minor and you will face unnecessary stress.....but always be cautious and seek expert advice

Yes that person needs to go to the doctor they could have jaundice or another illness. Yellowing of the eyes is not normal.

If they haven't been yellow in the past, there could be.
When you have liver disease, the liver functions begin to shut down, and bile enters the system--which is why your eyes turn yellow when you have hepatitis.

It can indicate jaundice or other liver problems. Have a doctor check you or whoever it is & get some tests.

They could be jaundous (sorry if I spelled it wrong). I believe it affects the liver. They should be checked by a doc soon!
