The picture is not clear enough for me to tell. The most common cause of yellow discoloration of the white of the eye is "pinguecula" use the search feature to read about and type that into Google IMAGES to see what they look like

Your Eye MDs seem to all believe you have a variant of dry eye syndrome. If the drops are not enough go back to the one you like best and ask about starting Restasis eye drops
