Need Advice on Monitor Repair

theres no way to salvage if thats the case

 

So my 1440p monitor stopped displaying anything a little while ago. It still turns on but there is a just a black screen.
basically I was just hoping someone could give me an idea if something like that is repairable and how much it would cost (in CAD)
to take to a computer shop or something, because I really don't want to spend the money on a new monitor right now, and if I can salvage this one
I would like to.

Thanks in advance.

I checked with multiple cables and, vga and hdmi, I can check again but I am fairly sure its a problem with the display itself.

It's just black, the acer logo doesn't come up or anything (its an acer g257hu). The power light comes on though.
