If the screen colours appear to be distorted or unnatural, you need to check some key Accessibility settings that are intended to compensate for specific colour-vision issues:
Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size
Ensure that all settings enclosed within the red box above are switched OFF/Disabled.
Otherwise, depending upon your installed version of iOS/iPadOS, you’ll need to look at your Dark Mode settings:
Settings > Display & Brightness > [Appearance]
As for burn-in / persistence, an image must have been continuously displayed on the screen for a very, very long period for “burn-in” to occur. While rare, LCD screen technology is not totally immune to “burn-in.
In the unlikely event that this phenomenon should be encountered, it may be permanent. Some reports suggest that leaving the iPad fully shut down - and unused - for many days might reduce the effect.
