On the back side of the iPhone XS, what is the anatomy of the 3 "dots" or lenses in the top left corner? I shattered the bottom of the three one on my phone, and am not sure what it is or what it will effect.

IPhone 13 Pro Max camera lens broken Hello, can the broken glass of one of my camera lenses be replaced? It is only the glass of one of the 3 lenses at the back of the phone. Any idea on how much will that cost? Can apple do it or they will suggest whole device replacement?
