Uggh Moisture in my iPad

Left my iPad out on the porch and it got a light rain on it.

I put it in a bag with rice like a lot of folks suggested, and I took it out yesterday after two days.

It powers up and works, but the screen has areas obviously shaded in some areas from moisture.

What can I do to fix this? Will it cause the screen to go bad if I use it? I shut it right back off.

The moisture eventually dried, but it left sugar crystals.

Other than being annoying at times, it didn't seem to interfere with the functioning of the machine at all.

I don't know if it's the same for the iPad or not.
