Fading Lines on Screen

[HL2020]

Faded lines have appeared on the screen. At first, through was smudges but seems to be below the surface of the screen and cannot be removed with a microfibre cloth. Very visible when using the screen in a well-lit environment. Seems to be a hardware problem with the screen. Appeared minorly after 9 months use but have only grown in size since then. Very disappointed as have been very happy with this laptop otherwise.
