Question about jaundice eyes

[shu2]

Hello,
The white of my eyes are slightly colored-yellow.
I search the google for jaundice eyes but my eyes ARE NOT too yellow just like the images in the google.
The white of my eyes, sometimes colored yellow, or some kind of light brown and I don't understand why it is like that.
What does it mean ? Does it mean I have jaundice? Or what disease?
I'm scared. :( I'm too young(16).
Please answer and help me.
Thank you.

hi

get your LFT tested the bilirubin will show you if its your liver i believe, i know a few people who have got slightly yellow tints on their eyes but when tested for liver function (bilirubin) the levels are normal, so not sure what else can cause this.

there are individual differences in the sclerae of peoples' eyes.  The degree of sunlight also plays a role when you look at them. rarely, eating too many carrots can also make your eyes appear yellow.
