Yellowing of the eyes

When you have a condition called jaundice, the whites of your eyes turn yellow.

It sounds scary and it is scary, because this condition (also known as icterus) is a common symptom in the early stages of pancreatic cancer, gallbladder cancer, bile duct cancer, or a type of liver cancer called hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

That yellowish tint has different root causes and your doctor will ask you to take some tests such as a complete blood count, blood chemistry tests, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and an ultrasound or CT scan of the abdomen in order to find the exact cause.
