I usually try to avoid reading the eix man page if at all possible (an
object lesson in how to overwhelm users with waaaaaaaaay too much
stuff), bit in this case I had to scan it quickly :-)

It looks like the default color scheme changed, and you specify the one
you want in ~/.eixrc. More specifically, you use the COLORSCHEME
directive.

If you wanna know more, I'm afraid you are going to have to read man
eix yourself for reasons noted above :-)
