If the whites of your eyes have recently become yellow then it is possible that you have mild jaundice. The only way to have this checked is get examined by your doctor.
A simple blood test will clear up any diagnostic uncertainty. Jaundice is usually a sign of liver problems, which can often be treated once the cause is identified.
The yellow hues or tinted discoloration within our eyes and skin is usually caused by liver problems. Whenever this partakes, seek a doctors care immediately.

This yellow discoloration sounds like jaundice. This yellowing of the skin or eyes occurs when bilirubin levels in your blood are elevated. Bilirubin is a break-down product of metabolism in the liver. It can occur with many liver problems, such as infection, gall stones, or worse. It can also be elevated with certain types of blood disorders, such as hemolytic anemia.
Jaundice is not normal. Please call your doctor's office this morning. A blood test can measure your bilirubin levels, as well as liver enzymes and white blood cells. Your doc can tell you if an office visit is OK, or if you need to go the ER. Best of luck.

Yes, if they are yellow it's usually a sign of liver enzymes being elevated. Some times for stones stuck in bile duct (as in gallbladder trouble) and sometimes for liver problems, as in cirrhosis. Definetly, go to doc today. Or to ER

Maybe gallbladder problems coming on. That will make your liver not work right and thus, you start to turn yellow.
