How To Remove This Lines From My Macbook 2017 Screen by Hope2014(m): 6:00pm On May 30, 2022
I have tried this options below, still no improvement
To reset the model’s SMC without having a T2 chip, follow the steps given below: –

Step 1:
The first step that always remains the same is to shut down your device (MacBook Pro).
Hold shift key of the left side and left control along with left Alt option key available.
Hold the above keys for at least 10-12 seconds. Without letting them release, press and hold the power button on your MacBook Pro.
Now, additionally, keep all these four keys pressed for about 10 seconds more.
Now, release the keys you pressed and wait for at least 20-30 seconds, and after that turn on your MacBook Pro.

Step 2: Reset NVRAM on MacBook Pro: After completing the above process, the individual has to reset their MacBook’s NVRAM with the following steps:
Restart your MacBook.
After turning your MacBook back on, press the command keys P and R and keep it held.
After hearing the start-up sound of the MacBook for the second time, then after you have to release the keys.
With the models having a T2 chip, you have to keep in mind before releasing the keys, after when the Apple logo appears and disappears for the second time.

Is that the line in the middle or the rasterize lines? Can you got to Systems Preference==>Display and do a screenshot of what you see there. I suspect the Refresh Rate may have changed - it should be 60Hz.

If not the above then likely you bucked the laptop screen against a hard surface. Awaiting your screenshot now

Na normal thing for 2016, 2017 models
Any slight pressure, the display flex gets issue, because of how thin the laptop is
It's a hard ware issue, sometimes it comes and goes

Seems the fault is the T-con board
And you be can’t replace it without replacing the. Display
There are some sources said it’s caused by over b heating, the heat sink is close to the t-con board, thereby affecting it.
Try and find open the laptop to clean the vents and all
And avoid blocking the vents with pillow and stuffs.
But there’s a samprince mac guy in that pepple street plaza in Cv, he should have an idea about diagnosis.
He’s one of the best mac engineers in my option, neat office.
