"Is Jaundice, Characterized by Yellow Eyes, a Serious Condition?"

In general, the yellowing of the eyeballs caused by jaundice is usually not severe. However, if other uncomfortable symptoms appear, prompt medical attention is necessary.

1. Causes:

The normal color of eyeballs is white or light yellow, and a slight yellowish tint in the eyes may be due to elevated bilirubin levels in the body. This is commonly seen in neonatal physiological jaundice and pathological jaundice caused by diseases such as hepatitis.

2. Hazards:

If the patient does not experience significant discomfort and is in good physical condition, no special treatment is required. However, if the condition is severe and accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, it requires attention and targeted treatment. Failure to control the underlying cause in a timely manner may damage the liver, potentially progressing to chronic liver failure and endangering life safety.

3. Treatment Methods:

For mild jaundice, patients can follow doctor's instructions to take Yinzhihuang Granules or Bifidobacterium Triple Viable Capsules for improvement. For severe jaundice, it is recommended to use Reduced Glutathione for Injection and Ursodeoxycholic Acid Tablets under the guidance of a doctor for liver protection, enzyme reduction, and jaundice relief. Additionally, blue light therapy can be used to promote the excretion of bilirubin from the body, thereby achieving the goal of alleviation. In daily life, it is important to rest adequately, avoid overexertion, and consume more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as apples, bananas, dragon fruits, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc., to supplement vitamin C and enhance immunity. Maintaining a pleasant mood and avoiding excessive emotional excitement or stress is also crucial for good health.
