I have a small patch of light pixels at the top of my screen, IPod touch 5th generation 16 gigabytes. I will try to include a photo. If there is anything I can do about it, please let me know.

You need to have the screen or iPod replaced.

If not covered by warranty

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for a 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.

Apple - iPod Repair price

You can do it at an Apple store by making an appointment:

Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar

or send it in to Apple. See:

Service Answer Center - iPod


A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens

Replace the screen yourself if you are up to it
