Yellowish looking headlights

The other day i noticed my headlights look yellowish compared to other vehicles. They are not foggy or have moisture in them. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix this?

My wife's headlights were looking yellowish also. Father in law suggested bug repellent with deet and guess what? Worked like a charm. Headlights are now nice and clear. Not sure how long it will last, but what a cheap solution. Either spray on the headlight directly and wipe with a cloth or spray on the cloth and wipe.
