There is a kit sold here in the UK that consists of some special glue, and
a syringe type device, which when used to the instructions will fix small
chips, and star cracks in the screen.  I used one of these kits
sucessfully, and if I remember correctly, it was manufactured by a US
company, so you should be able to get it in the US.

It the chip is a crack, then you probably need a specialist to do it.  This
is when they'll need to drill holes along the crack line and inject the
special glue.
