Maybe she tried to change into a hawk or eagle and it went badly 
and left her with yellow eyes? Maybe there was an owl feather in 
her polyjuice potion?  Maybe she had a spell backfire on her?  
Maybe it's contact lenses. Maybe one of her parents was part pooka?  Maybe they are not as yellow as we think and just an off shade of brown? Maybe she's Tonk's mother remarried with a new name and she 
can change her looks and just decided to stop with yellow eyes and 
not bother changing anymore?  

Maybe Fawkes is her brother and she's a Phoenix changed into a 
human?  Maybe she smoked bad pipe weed.  (Had some bad hooch there, Madam Hooch?) We may never know for sure, but I am sure we will see 
a lot of theories pop up and one or two fanfics involving this.
