What Causes Severe Redness Of The Eyes While Treating Jaundice?
yellow pigmentation of the eyes indicates jaundice & should be investigated
Detailed Answer:
hi.
thank you for posting query at HCM.
yellow pigmentation of any anatomical site within the white part of eye (sclera)- corners, top or bottom part- ; should always be INVESTIGATED.
however, red eye is NOT a presentation of jaundice.
Jaundice can be due to hemolytic anemia, hepatitis OR gall bladder pathology.
If yellow color over sclera (white part of eyes) is evident in your case , your are advised to visit hepatologist or gatsroenterologist at earliest and get following test done:
1. CBC 2. Liver function test 3. HBsAg and anti HCV
4. anti HAV 5. abdominal ultrasound if your obese or overweight
Health professionals aim to diagnose properly and manage patients according to their limited knowledge. Cure is blessed by the ONE who Created us, whose power and knowledge is unlimited .
hope to answer your concern.
