Small grayish shadow on top left corner of the screen

My iphone was replaced by apple for about 4-5 months now and I just noticed the issue about a week ago. The shadow is most evident in every color except white? Is it harmful to the phone. What is the risk if I have it repaired. My phone is out of warranty now because they just continued the warranty of my previous phone. Haha. Thanks.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

I've seen this issue before and it's caused by a few things. It's either a manufacturing defect in the display as the shadow could be a part of the back light dying or it could be from too much glue behind the glass causing pressure on the lcd. I wouldnt worry about it unless that dark spot starts growing. If it bothers you, then grab a screen kit off iFixit and replace it or have a reputable local repair shop replace your screen.
