Replacing a display in a laptop is a routine operation for IT companies hardware teams. So it should be easy to find a shop that replaces the display.

Totally, assuming of course it's a business class laptop (indeed if it's a thinkpad or similar most anyone can grab a $50 screen from China, find a yt tutorial and have a go themselves with a fair chance of success). On the other hand if it's a glued together ultra thin consumer POS, it's likely more than it's worth to get it fixed.
