I hope this isn't a bad sign, but everything looks a bit more yellowish than normal.

6. I tried to Google your symptom....
but I can't seem to find anything that matches what you're experiencing. If it doesn't go away the next day, I would recommend calling an optometrist to ask and follow whatever advice they have for you.

8. Actually, it appears that you have one of the primary symptoms of a cataract.
From http://www.lotuseye.org/cataract_surgery_in_india.html

What are the symptoms of cataract?

* A painless blurring of vision
* Glare/light sensitivity
* Double vision in one eye
* Poor night vision
* Fading or yellowish tint
* Decrease in brightness

11. Some drugs have that side effect.
I would definitely see a doctor first thing in the morning.

12. cataracts possible?
I didn't realize everything was yellowish till they were removed. They were caused by prednisone.
