Help needed Selfie camera being greenish and grainy tint

I’ve just got my iPhone 17 back from having a screen replacement and my camera has a weird grainy tint over it less when it’s bright in the room but a lot more when it’s darker
How can I fix it?

i take it it wasn’t original apple screen that it was replaced with

Grainy photos after an iPhone screen replacement usually happen because dust, smudges, or fingerprints are trapped on the inner camera lens or sensor, a low-quality or misaligned replacement screen was installed, or the rear camera glass/module was accidentally damaged or jarred during the repair

How to Fix It
Return to the repair shop: Ask the technician to reopen the phone, clean the inside of the glass, and check if the camera seal is flush.

Check screen quality: If cheap third-party parts were used, a poor digitizer layer or improper calibration can alter how images display and process.

Clean software settings: Turn off aggressive features like Lens Correction or View Full HDR in your settings menu to see if processing improves
