Hello, my daughter's iPhone has a weird screen failure. Of course, she didn't do anything, "it just happened". It doesn't look like water damage and I see no signs of a drop. Just the light leakage at the top and the odd diagonal lines from the top and bottom. They are not visible on a dark image, only light. Thanks for any tips on what this could be.

It could have been dropped or bumped without doing any other damage to the phone as that's what it looks like. Anyway, do you have Apple Care +? If so, Apple will repair or replace the phone's screen for $79. Without Apple Care + the cost will be $109.00. Make sure you take it to Apple and not one of those less expensive Mall Kiosk repair booths.
