Are you sure the lens is actually opening ? Next time you use it, examine the front of the lens to see if the lens cover has opened. If it has not, that is the reason. You may be able to get it repaired, but at a cost.

that's happen due to physical damage like dropping etc. try to open inside and align well the lens mechanism

Try replacing the battery(s).

From your description, it appears that the camera may have received an accidental blow, or else there is some foreign matter (sand or suchlike) in the lens mechanism. Either way, you are probably looking at professional repairs, which will be expensive, possibly prohibitively so. It may be more financially viable to replace your equipment. If you can show accidental damage has occurred, then you may be able to claim on your household insurance.

Try looking through the menu system for an item called Factory Reset or similar. This will remove all changes made since manufacture, without affecting photos taken.

Is this information not contained in the manual ?

It is almost inconceivable if mechanical failure, but a little WD40 spray you can buy at any street corner inside spray can work wonders

Could be the iris blades in the lens are not closing to control exposure - can you look into the lens while taking a 'selfie', and see if they close ? If not, then it needs a service, I'm afraid.

Take off the card don one side it should have a little switch that you can slide please find it and see what side says protection off or on and thats all you need.
Hope this is enough help have a good day...
