I have an 2011 Mac running 10.12.6. The Mac turns on but is displaying a black/blueish tint. There is no icons or cursor. Upon turning it on, I do hear the startup chime and DVD player so I know there is power to internal parts. I do feel the fan blowing through the vents. Nothing appears on the screen.

The Mac was working before and plugged into a power strip. So, I don't know if something got zapped.
 
Can you shine a bright light on the screen and look closely. It may be the icons etc. are all there but the back light is not coming on / failed.
