Vertical lines on screen
How do I get rid of the vertical lines that are on the side of my display screen? I did not drop or harm my laptop in any way...
Thanks in advance,

Vertical artifacts are almost always a hardware issue in the display itself. The picture you see is built from a stack of horizontal rows of dots, and only when everything lines up perfectly do you get a clear picture.
Thank you for the info. Can it be repaired?
yes, but -- it likely means replacing the entire display assembly, at a cost of more than US$600 for recent MacBook Pro models.
You may choose to connect an external display or TV set as an inexpensive work-around.
