bright circles visible on paperwhite screen

I just got the latest Paperwhite, and this is the first Kindle I've used.

Overall, I'm enjoying it but one thing I have noticed which I'm finding a bit distracting is that when the light is on, bright circles are visible under the surface of the screen, particularly at the bottom, where I can always clearly see three bright circles, right, left and, center.

I would expect the lighting on the screen to be uniform and not noticeable, but having never used a kindle device before I don't know if this is somehow inherent in the design of the lighting technology, or a defect warranting a return.

Appreciate any feedback you can offer on this issue.
