Others in here have noted that you can take the top off of the laser head and push the lens out with a cotton swab.

Yes, you can push the lens out from the top. If you remove the lid of the print head, and the mirror, you’ll see the lens from above. Have your hand or a soft surface underneath to catch it. Once you get the magnet off the lens, you can superglue it back onto the plastic handle.
