So I've bought 144hz monitor(LG 34UC79G).
3 days after setting it up in place, because of an unlucky occasion, the monitor's leftmost side was hit(the hit was applied to the panel part of it). If I recall that correctly, I saw nothing at first, and thought everything went fine, but the next day I saw this grid of dark spots coming from the leftmost side of the monitor, gradually vanishing as it comes closer to the center.
This is how it looks so far(barely visible at distance):

a little closer:

And this is an adjusted picture I've made so you can see the issue clearer(I'm talking about those hundreds of big, smooth dark areas. the right part of the monitor is clear):

As long as the picture is complex, the issue is almost invisible, but every time a solid color shows up, it gets bothering.
Pretty sure the issue voids my guarantee.
So, my question is: is it worth trying to repair that, and if yes - is it possible for me to repair it on my own(how complex the repair is expected to be)?
I've had some repairing done before, so I'm ready not to screw things up, but I have no experience working with monitors.
