Having Conjunctivitis For Years With Yellow Eyes, Is Redness In Eyes Related To Liver Function?

Hi,
I have been suffering with conjunctivitis for years and lately my eyes have looked yellow. Could my red eyes be related to liver function? I've never found the cause for my condition. The only thing I ever seem to get is a diagnosis and not a cure. Please help. Thank-you

Hi,
Having yellow sclera indicates jaundice as there is deposition of bile pigment in the sclera ( white part of eye )
There might be having some problem in your liver like infective hepatitis.
Please see the difference between yellow sclera and muddy sclera.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
