AppleVision 1710AV Display: Power Light Not Visible (8/95)

My AppleVision 1710AV display has an image on the screen, but the power light does not appear to be on. If I am sitting directly in front of the AppleVision 1710 AV monitor, I can see the power light. If I move my head more than 30 degrees in any direction, I cannot tell if the light is on.

This is a common problem with some plastic lenses that cover LED power indicators. Some lenses refract light better than others, resulting in a greater angle of view from the side. On the AppleVision 1710 AV display, the plastic lens has an angle of view of about 60 degrees.
