I have a Sony RPTV KDP550ws I am having an issue with my green and red tubes. Seems to be a dot at the center of the tubes. This causes two dots, one red and one green to appear at the center of the picture. Any idea how to fix? It is not on the lens but the tube proper. See attached picture of green tube. The red tube has a similar dot. Just cant get a good picture!

Those are spot burns in the phosphor inside the tubes.
