Is this a dead pixel - no fix?
If the "circle" is as large as a pixel, then it could be a dead pixel.

However, if the circle (as I think) is far more larger than a single pixel, your screen has been damaged by something, e.g. umidity (like mine, which has a lighter circle like yours because of some water it took a year ago).

I'm afraid you can't do anything to fix that, sorry!

EDIT: didn't know about that common problem, however I'm pretty sure that my screen was damaged by water; can't guarantee for yours
