We saved this little kitten from the side of the road and it looks like it is eye bookers but it has a yellow tint to it

Your kitten possibly has a little infection. I would carefully wipe off the discharge and observe the eye. If he keeps squinting or has more of that yellow discharge, and / or sneezes then you should have him examined by your vet. It also may be a good idea to have him vaccinated and wormed.
