A light-emitting device having a through-hole cavity is disclosed. The optical device may contain a plurality of conductors, a light source die, a body and a transparent encapsulant material. The body may have a top surface and a bottom surface. A cavity is formed within the body extending from the bottom surface to the top surface and defining therein a bottom opening and a top opening, respectively. Optionally, the light-emitting device may comprise a lens. During manufacturing process, liquid or semi-liquid form transparent material is injected from the bottom surface into the cavity, encapsulating the light source die and forming a lens. The shape of the lens is defined by a mold aligned to the top opening of the body. In yet another embodiment, optical devices having a cavity or multiple cavities are disclosed. The optical devices may include a proximity sensor, an opto-coupler, an encoder and other similar sensors.
