The invention provides an integrated circuit package and method of fabrication thereof. The integrated circuit package comprises an integrated circuit chip having a photosensitive device thereon; a bonding pad formed on an upper surface of the integrated circuit chip and electrically connected to the photosensitive device; a barrier formed between the bonding pad and the photosensitive device; and a conductive layer formed on a sidewall of the integrated circuit chip and electrically connected to the bonding pad. The barrier layer blocks overflow of the adhesive layer into a region, on which the photosensitive device is formed, to improve yield for fabricating the integrated circuit package.
