Blue ghost image on left side of screen

I have a 50' screen Sony Wega Lcd Tv. It has a blue color on the left side of the screen. It looks like a liquid is falling down behind the screen. It is also leaving behind a paused menu on my games from my ps3. How do I fix it?? I have a blue pattern, more like a irregular shaped extra blue intensity in the middle of the screen. It is approximately 20% of the screen and just off center. Bulb has been recently replaced. Unit had been working perfectly, except for a bulb replacement for the last 5 years.
I see reports of blue stars, this seems different. I did not touch bulb surface and blew off the dust in the housing area with an "electronics" dust spray...just air without moisture.
Is this a part that user replaceable?

The Optical Block Assy would have to be replaced, same part that causes Blue Dots, not considered to be user replaceable.

Blue spots on Sony WEGA KDF60XS955

Thats caused by a bad optical block. The cost of that repair will almost always be greater than replacing the TV.Thats a very common issue with alot of Sony DLP models which suffered that optical block issue with the blobs of color usually blue or green

I have blue dots on the screen. I cleaned the glass on the projection bulb and the prizm but still have blue dots.

Your tv is an LCD projection one - in which the image is generated by 3 small LCD screens. The blue dots are pixels from the blue LCD that are dead - always fully open.The only fix is to replace the LCD panel and that is going to cost you around $300.

My Sony Grand Wega LCD TV currently has a large blue spot on the left side of the screen when powered on. I have changed the lamp, but this did not solve the problem. Could this be caused by bad component...

Hi,
I'm afraid, it is problem of optics unit block (light engine), there are 3 LCDs red-green-blue for color picture formation and blue LCD sounds bad, please call local TV tech for fix.
Thanks.
