    Horizontal & vertical lines across screen

    Not sure if this is fixable. Came back from a weekend trip and found my MBA screen like this. Nothing happened to it to my knowledge. When I plug it into an HDMI I can see everything on my TV screen, so maybe just a connection issue? Anything helps, thanks!
