Samsung LA32S81B distorted screen

[vernond]

Hi.

I have this Samsung TV with the distorted screen as in the attachment.

Apart from the distortion when the TV is off there is a kind of burn mark at the edge of the LCD display when it is on.

Besides this two issues there is no other problem with the tv.

Is there anything I can do to repair this distortion?

Thank you in advance.

I think that might have been a candle or other heat source getting too close to the LCD. The front diffuser has melted. This is bonded to the panel and can't be replaced without completely replacing the screen.
