I dropped my ipod on the floor, and the screen had colored/rainbow lines on the right side of my screen. The touch screen still works perfectly fine, but I can not see what is on the right half of my screen(Picture of the broken screen below). Please respond soon if there is anything I could do to fix it.
iPod touch, iOS 6.1.6
