you said over a year old, so probably out of guarantee anyway, but opening up any e-reader is a no-no if you want to then claim under warranty
replacing the screen is most likely a delicate operation, even if you can find one on sale ( ebay ?).
I'd be inclined to look for a working, used , identical model on ebay so that you have one that works & one to cannibalise as needed e.g. if the sleep switch were to fail next.
or conclude this is gods way of hinting that it's time to upgrade to an aura HD
