Hey there!
I have an early 2011 15" MBP Hi res antiglare. It all works flawlessly until recently I have discovered this problem:
When I wake the MBP from sleep, meaning opening it up again, sometimes (like once a week, so not that often) there is like a red glare kinda thing at both sides of it. It is really bad until I put in the password and then it is a lot better. Goes away when I close the lid again and wake it up again. It doesn't do it that often (as I said, once a week maybe) and has happened 3 times now. It is starting to worry me, since my warranty is valid until 20th of June only. Any suggestions? I can't really take it to the Apple Store right now, because of the problem occurring not that often. What do you suggest? Any similar problems known?
 
I suggest getting a camera, taking pictures the next time it happens, then going to the Apple Store. If you can't reproduce the problem directly in the store, show them the pictures and see what they have to say.
