Well, potassium is a mineral that helps maintain the water and acid balance in blood and tissue cells. And when you suffer potassium deficiency, it will just lead to dry skin, muscle weakness, and fatigue. And in some serious cases, heart problems can be possible too. But on the other hand, there is no evidence which has shown that potassium deficiency can lead to yellow eyes. And in detail, yellow eyes can be caused by many reasons, such as iron deficiency, smoking and so on. If you suffer yellow eyes because of iron deficiency, just eat foods such as beef, liver, chicken, green leafy vegetables and beans to increase your iron levels. So you just do not need to worry about it too much.
