It sounds like the backlight is on the way out. It can be replaced by a specialist repair shop. Try to set the brightness as low as you can, and see if it stays on.
I think it is around $100, worth doing as it has a limited life. If you replace the whole LCD with a 2nd hand one, it may be weeks away from failure. A new one will be several hundred dollers.
