My friend has a tiny scratch on the lens of his phone. He has no idea how it got there but when he takes pictures or records video, it has a white line to the left of the center of whatever he is focusing on. Is there any way to fix this without needing to replace the thing?

Hey Slate23,

I've had this issue with my watch face, and I bought a <$10 scratch remover that worked wonders on it!

I think Amazon sells scratch remover. It basically fills in the scratch and makes it a clean and clear surface so you won't notice it anymore. I can't remember the kind a friend of mine got but I am almost 100% certain it was on Amazon for like $7.99

You get a small tube but you don't need a lot.

As mentioned you can get the fixing lube for it or if you want to just skip that you can get a full repair kit with a new lens for your phone. They aren't too expensive but you have to be very careful when changing it.
