Weird lines on my macbook screen.

Hello, I am asking a question about my MacBook air m1 model. I am having this weird issue where my screen has these small horizontal lines. At first, they were there but not that big of a deal but now they became blue and are making it hard for me to do stuff on my MacBook. I will put pictures. If anyone knows a way to fix this please let me know.


Thank You


At first:


Now:

MacBook Air (2020 or later)

Thank you for the images.


Your Screen is Failing:

From what you have reported, your screen is apparently failing. So, It is time for a new screen. If you have not had this replaced, and it is covered under warranty, then it might be replaceable by Apple, free of charge --but that it Apple's call.


What to Try:


Perhaps this is a Faulty Device?:

How old is this Mac? Note that 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. Being faulty, it likely would be nothing on you. 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 you :)
