camera glass got scratched

Hi my Sony Xperia sp(6 months old) camera glass has been scratched(with normal use I hv not dropped my phone)... I think this is affecting the pic quality can. Anyone tell if it can be replaced (just the glass) or whether the entire camera module has to be replaced.... Can anyone guide me on this...

You have to take it to a Sony repair center

It might be cheaper DIY (do it yourself) BUT it will void your warranty

Yup saw a video on YouTube... getting the spares will be difficult too I feel + warranty issue I feel not worth the risk...
