If this is just a standalone monitor the cost of the bare panel very often kills any chance of the repair working out :-(. Check the label and see but if it's an LG or Samsung LCD there's a good chance the panel cost will be near a nice used one and potentially a brand new monitor of similar quality. I would say 7/10 times the panel cost does you in on displays.
Now if this is a laptop, this looks like a modern T series of the "s" flavor based on the LCD bezel, maybe a early T14. With the ThinkPads you will need to use something like a guitar pick to get the bezel off and then remove 4 screws to get the LCD part number. The good thing with laptops is unless the computer is older like a T480 where parts cost as much as a nice T14 (unless you can get a donor unit with Intune MDM or a BIOS lock with the FHD IPS LCD for very cheap) the older models tend to get expensive to repair vs buying another one, or sometimes a newer computer altogether. Grab the EDID using [link|https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/dump_edid.html|DumpEDID - Dump EDID information|new_window=true] if you want a quick look as it avoids disassembling it if you have a laptop. You run this in command prompt as follows:
* Open command prompt (admin optional)
* Run cd.. until you get to the C: drive
* run cd and type users
* run cd user name (ex: Nick)
* run cd dumpedid
* type runedid
Output will look like this:

You can also use [link|https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/monitor_info_view.html|MonitorInfoView - View Monitor Information (EDID)|new_window=true] if you want a GUI.

Once we know which one you have we can better assess the situation. For a laptop the model will be sufficient to get a starting point. I personally just tend to let the machine go once the processor is older if something major goes like am LCD, especially anything pre 11th gen. The cost tends to creep enough of the time I'll check but I already know.
