Important: Do NOT use acetone. It erodes plastics and may severely
damage the screen surface.
Someone already suggested using a moist, lint-free cloth. There are
cleaning gels and wipes for LCD screens that you can also try.

The only "safe" solvent to use on anything computer-screen related is
water, preferably distilled, although it won't dissolve most inks.
Isopropyl alcohoi will cut through most inks, possibly not as well on
ballpoint inks as on dry erase or permanent marker, but it may react
chemically with some plastics, particularly transparent/translucent
ones.
I don't remember if the scratch filler compound I'm thinking about --
that would match the refractive index of the plastic and polish out
after applying to hide the scratch -- is something that actually
exists or something I wanted that didn't exist. (And I'm not sure how
good an idea that would be on a matte finish diffuser surface
anyway.) I seem to remember that some LCD's can be disassembled and
the front diffuser sheet replaced, and if this is one of those, that
might be feasible. It's labor intensive, as I recall ..
