The problem is called "convergence" You can get the repair kit here: http://www.amazon.com/Sony-KP-57WS510-KP57WS510-Convergence-Repair/dp/B006B9NN1W I don't recommend that you do this repair if you are not electronically inclined.

Look in the menu systems. Somewhere in there is a gun aiming tool. Some tvs require this at each start up, annoying, but worth the effort.

On that model I believe you need an original Sony projection remote or one of the "magic tv remotes" that support the convergence function.

Your convergence has failed. This is a very common problem on most projection tv sets.

did you check and replace the two pico fuses on the G board and also the six pico fuses on the D board? If so double check the solder often a pins mounting ring will lift up during the removal and prevent solder connection when doing the install.

tube is gone

The model listed does not have a standby light, only the power on/off light which is there in case the set does not make it on to blink a error code--specific number of blinksbefore going further can you confirm the model number and add if have sound, or menu etc?

While the set is prone to bad tubes a double or 3d like image is convergence--this model uses two of the STK-392-560 CHIPS for this.Go into customer menu and call up convergence--if off and will not adjust in any area of the screen the chips are bad.

Start by replacing the convergence amplifiers IC's.
Are two STK 392-560 and after that redo the adjustments.
