The invention relates to a photovoltaic device having a concentrator optics. The photovoltaic device includes at least one solar cell and a concentrator optics, with the concentrator optics having at least one first, light-input-side, focusing optical element and at least one second optical element downstream of the first, light-input-side optical element and upstream of the solar cell, onto which, in operating position of the photovoltaic device, the bundled solar radiation falls by way of the first optical element, with the second optical element having a solarization-stabilized silicate glass.
