LCD = Liquid Crystal Display. The liquid crystal solution may leak out
(or it may not). If you get it in your eyes it may be harmful; there
may also be some toxicity if it's ingested, but I don't think it's great
(I wonder what a laptop mfgr. would say if a customer asked for an MSDS
(Material Safety Data Sheet) on the liquid crystal fluid inside their
LCD displays (technically, they may be required by law to make such a
document available). I don't think that there is great harm in
continuing to use it, but I'd be looking to resolve it as soon as possible.
