You visit your relative who is working as a photojournalist in Africa. She takes you to a village where you see a newborn baby whose eyeballs have a yellowish tint. Is this normal? Explain

What will be an ideal response?

The baby has jaundice, a normal condition in the first days of life due to an immature liver. If the eyes are not white after a few days, that could indicate a problem. If left untreated it could cause brain damage. Exposure to sunlight (which contains vitamin D) is an effective treatment.
