Completely blue iPhone screen

My best friend's iPhone screen is completely blue and it won't turn off or reset… It's an iPhone 5 if that helps any… Is there anyway that this can be fixed without taking it to the apple store?

You should force restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch as a last resort, and only if

it's not responding. To force restart your device, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and

Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
