An optical system and a method for producing it is disclosed. The optical system has at least two separate optical components and an optical connection between them. In the inventive method, first and second optical component are provided, each having respective beam profiles. An arrangement of the first and second optical components and the form and target position of at least one beam-shaping element are specified. The beam-shaping element is produced using a three-dimensional direct-writing lithography method in situ at the target position to thereby obtain an optical component supplemented by the beam-shaping element. The supplemented optical component is placed and fixed on common base plate to thereby obtain the optical system. The optical systems produced with the present method can be used in optical data transfer, measurement technology and sensors, life sciences and medical technology, or optical signal processing.
