@gottdestodes did you by any chance put something heavy on the closed laptop after using it for some time. I have seen this happen on machines that someone was using for long enough for the screen to become heated (normal use heat)and then have them close it and pile some books or something heavy on top and imprint on the LCD while its warm. If this is the case the only fix is to either put up with the look of the screen or replace it. You can try fiddling with the contrast setting it may help a bit.
