A method of producing an optoelectronic component includes embedding an optoelectronic component part into a molded body such that an upper side of the optoelectronic component part is at least partially exposed on an upper side of the molded body; arranging and structuring a sacrificial layer above the upper side of the optoelectronic component part and the upper side of the molded body; arranging and structuring a layer of an optical material above the sacrificial layer; and removing the sacrificial layer.
