Brief Answer:
Once Fioricet is stopped,eyes'll be back to normal

Detailed Answer:
Hi back,

1. Icteric eyes are indicative for possible mechanical or chemical occlusion of biliary pathways.

2. If the cause of icteric eyes are from fioricet use, then, once you stop this medication, you liver will turn back to function normally. Consequently, eyes will turn back to normal color too.

If not, should get further investigations to determine the right cause.

Hope it helped!
