How to stop a flickering screen on a MacBook Pro
What is the exact model/year of your Mac?
If it is a 13" MBP 2016, check if it is eligible for this service program 13-inch MacBook Pro Display Backlight Service Program - Apple Support
If not, you can try these steps
How to reset the SMC of your Mac - Apple Support
Reset NVRAM or PRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
Restart holding D to enter Apple Diagnostics and tells us the outcome.
Well, based on the symptoms you told us, I'd say this is a hardware problem, maybe flat cable.
Take it to an Apple Store or Authorized service provider for it to be checked properly.

My MacBook Pro 13" does appear to be eligible so will take it to the service centre tomorrow. I had tried restarting earlier with no luck.
Thanks
