There are about 5 air bubbles spread out on the Macbook screen. Most of the time they aren't noticeable but sometimes I can notice 2-3 of them. When the screen is turned off they are all noticeable. Is there a way to fix this?

How did the air bubbles get there in the first place? Do you have a screen protector you neglected to mention?

No there's no screen protection.
I think it's been there since the beginning (about 3 and a half weeks ago) but I've just recently noticed it.

The only thing I can think of is to take apart the panel and reassemble it, but that I would suggest taking it to Apple.

Disregard myself, tried my best to get the bubbles. I made sure to clean the screen with a mircofiber cloth before I took the pictures. I may be overreacting, is there anything to worry about?
