A method of repairing a display defect in a display panel includes: in a module process stage, inputting a first data voltage to each pixel in the display panel, enabling the display panel to display an image to be detected, and acquiring a brightness of each pixel; determining a reference pixel and a defect pixel according to the image to be detected; calculating a compensation data voltage for the defect pixel according to a brightness difference between the reference pixel and the defect pixel; and inputting the first data voltage to the reference pixel, and inputting a second data voltage to the defect pixel, according to the compensation data voltage, where the second data voltage is a sum of the first data voltage and the compensation data voltage.
