The glass screens you see in ebay with no connections and connections are useless it's almost impossible to remove just the glass from a iPhone without professional equipment.

The front panel is the glass which can easily shatter when it's dropped.

Beneath the front glass (enbeded behind it) is the digitizer aka touch screen which is an electrical Inpulse sensor. Both are in one piece.

Then beneath the digitizer is the display screen aka LCD which displays images.
