Claim:
1. A method of forming an energized ophthalmic device, the method comprising: pre-dosing a first mold part with a pre-dose amount of a reactive monomer mixture; forming a media insert including at least one of energization or functional electronic components formed in a stacked integrated component device configuration, the media insert being a separate component that is configured to mount and encapsulate the at least one energization or functional electronic component; functionalizing the media insert so that an adhesion promoter can bind to a surface of said media insert; applying an adhesion promoter to the functionalized media insert; coating said media insert including the adhesion promoter; placing the media insert on said pre-dose of reactive monomer mixture; pre-curing the pre-dosed reactive monomer mixture to fixedly hold the media insert proximate to the first mold part; post-dosing the first mold part with a post-dose of a reactive monomer mixture; placing a second mold part proximate to the first mold part, wherein the placing forms a ophthalmic device mold assembly with a lens forming cavity; and curing at least the post-dosed reactive monomer mixture to form the ophthalmic lens, wherein the media insert is encapsulated in the ophthalmic lens.
