I suppose the OP could try borrowing a different e-ink reader from a friend and see if he experiences the same problems on a different device.
There is no focusing system in a eInk panel. It's possible there are issues with the various overlays over the capsules (manufacturing defect, overly high temperatures, etc.) but that is fairly unlikely. I'd expect to see blotches on the screen as a more likely result of such defect or damage.
