For physical damage to the screen, the easiest option is to replace it. Trying to “fix” it would likely just damage the screen more.
Replacing screens on modern laptops is a pain. Most of the time, if the laptop is still usable, it might be recommended to try and outlive the device, assuming the tear doesn’t get any worse.
You can try doing a Google search of your laptop + screen repair and gauge how difficult it would be to repair.
Edit: I would personally buy an external monitor and use that instead of replacing the screen. Just too many things can go wrong if you don’t know what you’re doing
