LED showing from behind screen

Hi all! I have a monitor where an LED is able to be seen through the screen. There are no tears or anything; it’s all behind the screen.

What would cause this to happen and is it able to be fixed?
Thanks!
 
Sorry about that. Didn't get any e-mails about this from [H] for some reason.

I probably still have a picture, but I don't know where I've put it by this point plus I returned the screen already.
 
That would have been a bright pixel, which is a pixel that is stuck open. When a pixel is stuck closed, it's a dead pixel. Bright pixels are a lot less common, which is good because they are a lot more annoying than a dead pixel, so most monitor sellers should take back a monitor with even a single bright pixel.
 
Naw, it was definitely a light behind the screen. All the pixels were showing up just fine aside from a bright LED-sized light behind 'em.
 
I trust you are certain it was not a light behind you that was reflected by the monitor, so that does sound odd.
