Just a thought but have you checked to see if you have a screen protector fitted, I get a similar effect in certain lighting conditions but it's because the screen protector was not fitted properly by the dealer.

It doesn’t appear to have one. The edges don’t look like anything is on top. I used some Plexus and it took some off. It’s almost like a car headlight getting frosted.

Here's another long shot: are you wearing polarizing sunglasses? LCD screens don't play well with polarized sunglasses.
