Brief Answer:
Probably jaundice, follow the advice below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I reviewed the attached photo.
I agree with your wife that the conjunctiva looks yellow.

The yellow conjunctiva is usually caused by liver issues.
I recommend doing some examinations for further evaluation.
I suggest:

-A complete blood count
-Liver enzymes
-Total and direct bilirubin
-An abdominal ultrasound
I also recommend a consult with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.
Meanwhile, it's recommended to stay hydrated and avoid caffeine or alcohol which can trigger the liver function.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Kind regards!

Brief Answer:
It does not seem to be related to alcohol consumption one day before.

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,

Jaundice is caused by the buildup of bilirubin in the system.
It usually needs some time and it is more related to a chronic condition.
So, I don't think that it can be related to alcohol consumption one day before.
If you consume alcohol regularly, it can cause a liver damage and jaundice.

Hope it helps dear,
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
