Solution

Jaundice is a disorder in which skin and eyes turn yellow due to the deposition of bile pigment. This happens when bile made in the liver fails to reach the intestine due to obstruction of the bile duct. As a result, the bile is absorbed into the blood instead of going to the duodenum and cause yellowing of eyes and skin.
