Why is my monitor discoloured?

Rich Marshall

Investigating whether this monitor Dell U2711 is dying or not.
On both sides the screen appears to be bleeding inwards with an orange stain.
You think it's the non-reflective coating getting old or the actual panel starting to fail?

A quick look through the dell forums shows the same issue with a model similar to yours, but its a USA variant. Some people reported that leaving it switched off for a week fixed it, but I dont think that's very practical.
Dell tech advised an RMA if its still under warranty. I would however be looking for a replacement if its an older unit.
