Like the title says, my display is white or washed out. I study electronics as a hobby but I cannot figure this one out for the life of me. I don't even really know what to call it really. I have enough for a new monitor but I really like this monitor. Please help.http://

Yes, this is permanent unless it is unplugged or off. The input source doesnt matter as it happens when it is just on.

https://imgur.com/a/WdzXbVq To be honest, that picture was a few months ago. This is it now and it isn't really getting worse and it hasn't really been an issue but I would love to see it fixed. This is it now with it on my desktop. Also, I got this monitor as a gift so that I could run a dual screen setup. I think the person that gave it to me said it was used but in pretty good condition.
