Instrument Cluster/LCD Display issue

Started my car this evening after about 2 days of not driving and the central LCD display appeared yellow/white as if it were fully illuminated. You can see the display still works but it very difficult to see anything. On starting the car the display appears as normal (blue) but then goes back to a yellow car.
I have no idea what the issue is.
Thought it may be due to low voltage from the battery but had the battery checked and was told it was fine.

NO LONGER ACTIVE
The LCD may be failing. I know the LCDs in the early W203 C-Class models were prone to this.

Issue solved!

Turns out the problem was due to a low battery.
Possibly due to when I changed the side mirrors to led ones and left the hazard lights on to make sure they work without starting the car.
After a long drive, the LCD display went back to normal.
