Thats a pretty common question, the most common options:
1. Cut a slot with a Rotary tool and use a flathead screwdriver.
2. Use a screw extractor. (Get carbon bits to drill the hole.)
3. More advanced, but weld something on there you can grip.
Depending on how far its rounded you might be able to hammer a torx in it, or even get it out with a high quality hex and maybe a elastic band under it for some extra grip. Those methods only seem to work if there is still some hex left though. If there is some screw exposed you could also try to get it out with pliers.
