I'm afraid not. The only solution is to replace the whole front panel along with the AMOLED display (the gorilla glass and led panel are fused together, as far as I know), which is very costly (and not easily available).
Take it to a Samsung service center (or call Samsung Pakistan).

Damn you maid.

there is a 99 % chance of messing up the entire display while separating digitizer from the glass although u can still do it with a hair dryer or a heatgun and carefully separating it as it is joined together with a glue but there will be fingerprints and dust particles stuck between the layers if u do it on ur own my advice is to either change whole display or simply smack a screen protector on it to avoid cutting your fingers

Sorry for your loss... it is possible to change just the touch panel. BUT Samsung doesnt provide its service centers with separate components. It has to do with looting you as much as possible. Still you can try the service center and make a strong case that only the touch panel is broken and needs replaced.

Screen protector is already on. Should I try saddar market? I just want to change it cuz it looks bad. Nothing else

What if I order the panel from ebay/amazon or buy it from saddar and provide it to the service centre. Will they change it for me?

You forgot the part where the LED panel, the digitizer and the glass panel are fused together. Its not about Samsung looting its customers. No one asked the maid to drop the phone.

In S3 the Amoled and Digitizer are same... while the Gorilla Glass is separate.

Galaxy S3 Cracked Glass (Read this if it has happened to you!) - xda-developers

II would say, get it done from official samsung
Yes Haider... Kindly try Samsung first and tell them its possible.

IF they screw up its their fault.

WTF Was the maid doing with your phone?

It'll cost a fortune to repair it. 18k minimum.
Mujhe abhi tak samajh nahi aya kay ye Gorilla Glass itna Abuses will lead to bans kyun hota hai? Phone ko ghaas mein girado to phone kay tukday urh jatay hai. Itna mehnga phone lay nai ka kya faida?
