How long will my iPhone 5c camera take to clear up?

So i accidently dropped my iphone 5c in the toilet along with my phone case on it. It got wet alot but i managed to pull it out before it got damaged even worse. So i wiped it off with whatever i could find and left it alone for a while. Thinking the phone was usable still, i was playing a game on my phone in my bedroom for a few hours before it froze and then shut off. Thinking my battery had died, i turned it on again to see if it needed charging, but all i seen was the phone rebooting itself. It kept showing the apple logo and turning off and on over and over. I then sent it to a repair shop and in under 5 hours, i got my phone working again but the problem now is that my iphone front camera is foggy and not taking clear pictures. The back camera takes photos just fine but i really wanna use my front camera more to take photos or selfies now i am just upset and i don’t know how to fix it myself. Will it dry out on its own ?

this ruined my life and i don’t know what to do. The person that fixed my phone said he couldn’t dry out my camera..

Front camera, once water got trapped in will probably never be usable again, but on the other hand, it is a relatively cheap spare that can be fixed on a DiY basis with some basic tools. Have a look at this guide to get a feel if it’s something you want to try on your own or you prefer get it done by a third party:
