Abstract
A lighting assembly having a mounting structure, an LED mounted on the mounting structure, an optical device optically coupled to the LED, and a support structure for connecting the optical device to the mounting structure. The LED is enclosed within a space formed by the mounting structure, the support structure, and the optical device. The support structure absorbs thermal energy to reduce an operating temperature of the optical device. The optical device may be formed from a first material and the support structure may be formed from a different, second material.
