Jaundice is a medical condition in which the
liver gets overtaxed and cannot perform its job

passing it through liver to kidney for disposing.

of the eyes also turns yellow due to excess
bilirubin in the blood, which is ordinarily filtered
by liver.

generally may be a symptom of some other
diseases and though in rare cases, if not cured
properly may eventually take a very serious
form.
