The invention relates to an organic optoelectronic component comprising a base electrode, a top electrode that is provided with passages and an arrangement of organic layers, which is formed between the base electrode and the top electrode and makes electrical contact with said electrodes. In said component, light can be generated in a light-emitting region by the application of electrical energy to the base electrode and the top electrode. An organic current distribution layer also extends into the region containing the passages, said layer making electrical contact with the top electrode and the light-emitting region.
