My screen has been flickering, but was working fine. Now the screen looks like this. Any idea as to what this is and what I could need to have repaired? I was typing and doing everything normally right before this happened so i’m assuming this is something to do with the screen only?

Hello,
You are probably right that this is a screen only issue but to be sure do you have a cable and external screen to verify that with?
To start I would use Apple Diagnostics to see if you can get a reference code pointing to the effected part(s) and referred to Apple Support for repair.
Use Apple Diagnostics to test your Mac - Apple Support
"Apple Diagnostics, formerly known as Apple Hardware Test, can check your Mac for hardware issues.
If you think your Mac might have a hardware issue, you can use Apple Diagnostics to help determine which hardware component might be at fault. Apple Diagnostics also suggests solutions and helps you contact Apple Support for assistance."
I hope this helps.

Thank you for the screenshot.
Your Screen is Failing:
I have never come across this. However, it seems your screen is failing. So take this in for service, ASAP.
To Get this Mad Serviced...
Contact Apple, and setup a Genius Bar Appointment or see an AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) in your local area. Be careful as to where you get this item, ask you may get an error of an unofficial screen. So, to avoid this continual message, it is best to have Apple replace a screen.
