We all have this problem as the correct drivers are not installed in the OS.
Try this script, I edited to fit Elementary OS, First install:
apt install git curl
Here's the script:

#!/bin/bash
set -e

#export CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=n
#export CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL=n
#export KERNELRELEASE=${1}

echo "Installing FacetimeHD camera for $KERNELRELEASE"
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/patjak/bcwc_pcie.git
cd bcwc_pcie/
git clone https://github.com/patjak/facetimehd-firmware.git
cd facetimehd-firmware/
make
make install
cd ..
make
make install
rm -rf /tmp/bcwc_pcie

if [ ! -d "/etc/modules-load.d" ]; then
mkdir -p "/etc/modules-load.d"
fi

cat > "/etc/modules-load.d/facetimehd.conf" << EOL

echo "Running depmod"
depmod -a

echo "Install complete."
