Camera Lens Spots

I believe my front and back camera lenses have some sort of laser damage? Because there are blueish purple dots that show up in my photos. My Apple warranty expires July 8th I believe, would this be covered under it? I’m not sure how else to fix it. Also would I be able to go to any Apple Store? Because I purchase the iPhone in Canada but I’m studying in the Netherlands and I won’t go back to Canada until July 31st, after the warranty expires.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 17

Does this spots appear in every photo on the same place and the same size? If no read the Wiki article below. If yes, then clean your camera surface and if that does not resolve the issue, then Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support 


Lens flare refers to a phenomenon wherein light is scattered or flared in a lens system, often in response to a bright light, producing a sometimes undesirable artifact within the image. This happens through light scattered by the imaging mechanism itself, for example through internal reflection and scattering from material imperfections in the lens. Lenses with large numbers of elements such as zooms tend to exhibit greater lens flare, as they contain a relatively large number of interfaces at which internal scattering may occur. These mechanisms differ from the focused image generation mechanism, which depends on rays from the refraction of light from the subject itself.
