Your Screen is Failing.

From what you have reported, your screen is apparently failing. So, It is time fro a new screen. If you have not had this replaced, then it might be replaceable by Apple.


Perhaps this is a Faulty Device?:

How old is this MacBook Air? You have a one-year, out-of-the-box, limited-warranty with this. So, if it is covered under warranty, then see if you can get the screen replaced. Ask Apple Support for a new screen.

NOTE: Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, calls are taking a bit linger to get through. And, that makes sense, because many are at home working out-of-the-house or are taking classes over-the-web, this they have more time on their hands to contact Apple Support. So, it might take a bit to get through to Apple Support. But, just stay on the line, and someone will be with yo
