This is indicative that your iPad's display is degrading. This can happen due to natural aging or a failing battery. You will need to have the display or battery replaced at your nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider:

Thank you for your post.
There appears to be a problem with the internal display panel. Only a certified Apple technician can determine the cause and offer a complete solution.
Therefore, I recommend service.
