Camera first lost focus then went completely black. Lost flashlight too!

In the last month and a half the rear camera of my iPhone 5S started giving blur pictures and last week I discovered it is not working at all. It just shows black image and nothing works. Along with it went the flash and the flashlight. The torch is not working as well. Nothing eventful happened to lead to this, apart from the new 9.3.1. update. Has anyone got any clue how to rectify? I have restored factory settings, tried all possible tricks around but NOTHING works. The phone is 2 years old and I am dreading going to Apple Store for the bill they are going to rake. In such cases, does the next Apple help?


By the way, the update is more malicious than this. All my alarms got wiped on their own. Things are not looking up.

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.3.1
