Glass replacement issue that nobody seems to know the answer to

So I don't know did anyone can answer this question but recently I have done an iPhone 6 and iPhone 5 glass replacement. After I cured the uv glue under a uv light I cleaned excess glue off and turned the phone on only to see that the screens were very discolored. I think this is because of the glue but I'm not sure if anyone knows why this happens please respond!

Hi , this is the issue with cutting Iphone screens and using UV glue to attach a new one. the glue gets between the LCD and backlight. this is what causes what you are seeing. you will require a new backlight. An alternative to loca is OCA - Optically Clear Adhesive (Sticker but needs autoclave to remove bubbles).
