Weird Display Mark Macbook Pro 13

Just wondering if anyone has come across these marks on their Mac. Cannot tell whether it is a display defect or a mark on the glass. Have considered the anti-reflective coating but I am unsure whether that would produce this kind of mark.


This is only noticeable when the display is on but on a dark background.


PRAM/NVRAM has been reset.

It looks like the anti-reflective coating is failing...
