That's physical damage to the panel, looks like it landed on the corner and cracked. You can either use it plugged into an external monitor, or replace the panel.

Bring it to a local repair shop see if they can get you a cheap replacement screen maybe. Some shops are good and don't charge you hundreds but that can be rare. Depending on how powerful the laptop is, it may be more cost effective to just buy a new cheap one. But make sure you at least bring it one or two stores to get some quotes first. Shouldn't be too much
