I also tried lens cleaner on an OM-10 screen (1-13 equivalent), and had this
darkening problem. Cleaning with dish detergent followed by a good rinse and
blow dry removed the lens cleaner, and resulted in a like-new screen.
(the screen had the black sticky specks from rotting foam, which is why the
detergent was needed).
