Hi everyone,
I’m looking for advice about a problem with my Nintendo 3DS screen.
About a day and a half ago I cleaned the screen and some water seems to have gone inside through a small crack that was already on the screen. After that, a large dark water spot appeared at the bottom of the display with a bubble inside it (about 2–3 cm).
The console has been turned off since then and I left it open to dry.
After around 30 hours:
the large water puddle has mostly disappeared
the bubble is gone
but now there are many small darker spots across the whole screen
Important details:
When the screen is off, I can barely see anything except the original large spot area.
When the screen is on, I can see many small darker zones or dots.
The spots change depending on the viewing angle.
So it looks like moisture spread between the LCD layers.
My question is:
Has anyone had this happen before where the liquid spreads into many tiny spots and then slowly dries out, or does this usually mean the LCD is permanently damaged?
I’m currently leaving the console open in a dry room to let it dry naturally.
Any experiences or advice would really help. Thanks!
Ps : the picture have been make at the small timing when the 3ds turn on (the screen isn't broken )

Best solution would be to open it up and clean it, but first let it dry i think
