Half of my whole screen has turned white after I dropped my IPAD, what do I do?

My ipad dropped flat on its screen and the bottom left corner of the screen had shattered. I am not sure if it is still possible for it to be fixed as due to this incident, half of the ipad's screen seems to be glitched (Not sure if this is the right word, it is black, but after awhile the colour white gradually becomes more distinct). Do I go to an apple store to get it fixed? or do I scrap this ipad and get a new one I am not sure? or is it possible for me to fix the screen issue myself? or is there a better option?

Your iPad has no user-serviceable parts. You can arrange for repair by visiting the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider - or use the mail-in repair service.

Whether or not the repair will be cost-effective, only you can judge. Unless you have benefit of an active AppleCare+ plan, the standard repair fee is typically c.60% of the “as-new” cost of the iPad. If you have an older model iPad, this high repair cost is perhaps being better spent towards purchase of a current model iPad with benefit of a full warranty.
