What Could The Yellow Discharge From Eyes Indicate?

Hi, 8 months after my child was born I noticed yellow underneath my eyes, its like injected yellow paint, 4 years later it is still there. Sometimes it gets better with a better diet and exercise, but I have been eating perfectly and just did a 30 day cleanse, still eating well and it seems to be getting worse? Any idea what could be causing this?

Even if it is not required you may do liver function test. If normal then nothing to worry. yellow pigment only give this coloration. but with normal liver function the pigment will be on overlying conjunctiva. Since all other function are normal and you are leading healthy life there is nothing to worry.
