1. A method of making an ophthalmic device including an optical surface, the method comprising:
(a) depositing a first lamina formed of a first plurality of ophthalmic device forming particulates, the first plurality of ophthalmic device forming particulates selected to form a portion of the ophthalmic device in response to synergistic stimulation; and
(b) synergistically stimulating the first lamina of ophthalmic device forming particulates to form a first solidified layer, a portion of the first solidified layer forming a portion of the ophthalmic device.
