Hello,
Looks to me like condensation between the actual screen and the touch panel sensor. The touch panel is laid over the screen like a laminate so most likely if it all still works.
If it is that, it's a bit of a pain to access it just to lift it off and let the air get to it. I would leave it and see what summer brings or drive with th AC on

Have you got sunroofs ? Worth checking drains are ok and not the source of moisture in the car. Common issue, drains failing that is, do a search on here..

Good afternoon
This is a great forum thanks for the tips, my car is non sun roof and there’s no moisture at all
I’ve taken lots of disco interiors apart at work the unit comes out quite easy. I might remove it and air it out like you said that’s a great idea
No condensation in the car at all, il pop a couple of dehumidifier bags in there tonight see how we get on.

It all works perfectly, it’s literally like you explained it’s between two layers.
I haven’t driven the car for a week or so, just ran up the road heater on full ect
Think il monitor it (excuse the pun) see how we get on !
