I’ve found that if there is still green, there is still time! Looks like you could be overwatering. I had some issues with yellowing leaves on mine a while back, I forgot to water for like 3 weeks and he is back to life now! Make sure to wait until the soil is dry on the top layers before watering again.

Yellow around the edges is usually overwatering

Looks like overwatering. Too wet soil too long makes the ideal environment for fungus gnats to thrive and cause root rot. Check the roots for rot and remove all rotten smelly roots. Rinse the roots with hydrogen peroxide to disinfect.

Treat the fungus gnats with BMC liquid drops or Mosquito Bits. Both contain beneficial bacteria (Bti) that kills the fungus gnat larvae over time. Water every time to keep fungus gnats from reaching adult stage.

Water only when the soil dried down. Avoid watering only to a schedule without checking the soil. 🪴🍀
