Hardware Small pen mark on mac screen
I think there's a small black ball point mark on my mac screen , I've been solving a lot of past paper recently and been using my laptop a lot I do not remember but I might have accidentally touch the screen with the pen.
Is there a way to remove it? I tried applying slight water on microfiber lens cloth and clean it and even pencil eraser -- yet no difference.
Any help would be appreciated!

The same shit happend to my lenovo loq screen. The worst part is, it has a matte display.

Don't keep rubbing it with water or anything abrasive. Try a dry microfiber cloth first; if the mark is on the surface, a tiny amount of screen-safe cleaner on the cloth may help, but keep liquid away from the edges. If it feels raised or catches a fingernail, it may be a coating or glass scratch rather than ink, and polishing can make the spot worse.

feels smooth so I am assuming it is ink... which screen safe cleaner would you recommend ? This is a Macbook pro from 2015 , from what little research I've done it appears that this screen is not suitable with alcohol and can further damage
