Elevation Vision
Our Mission
At Elevation Vision, our mission is to deliver exceptional, personalized eye care to every patient who walks through our doors. As a family-owned practice, we treat our patients like neighbors—getting to know you, your eyes, and your history so we can provide care that's as thorough as it is genuine. We're committed to combining advanced technology with the time, attention, and continuity that today's eye care too often leaves behind, helping the families of Castle Rock see clearly and live well for years to come.
About Our Clinic
At Elevation Vision, we believe great eye care starts with knowing you. We're a family-owned practice right here in Castle Rock, founded and run by two optometrists who happen to be married—and a team that treats every patient like a neighbor.
Eye care has been part of Dr. Garrett Moen's life for as long as he can remember. A second-generation optometrist, Garrett has been around the practice since he was 14 years old, learning the craft from the ground up. His wife and partner, Dr. Emily Lemburg, found her own path into optometry in an optical during college, where she fell in love with helping people see and feel their best—an experience that inspired her to become a doctor herself. Together, Garrett and Emily own and operate Elevation Vision as equal partners, sharing every decision and building the practice around the kind of personal, attentive care they'd want for their own family.
We're also delighted to have recently welcomed Dr. Theresa Hoang to our team. Theresa completed a residency in ocular disease and surgical management, bringing advanced training and a deep commitment to her patients' long-term eye health. She also recently celebrated a joyful milestone of her own—the birth of her first child. Between the three of us, our doctors share nearly 50 years of combined experience, and every bit of it goes into the care you receive.
Most blurry vision comes down to a refractive error: nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. We pinpoint exactly what's affecting your vision and correct it precisely with glasses or contacts so you see clearly at every distance.
Why Is Vision Care Important?
Your eyes do far more than simply help you see—they shape how you experience the entire world. An estimated 80% of everything you perceive comes through your vision, while all your other senses combined—hearing, touch, taste, and smell—account for only the remaining 20%. Your eyes are, quite literally, your primary window to the world around you.
That connection runs deep into the brain. Roughly half of all the neurons in your brain are linked to the visual cortex, the region responsible for processing what you see. In other words, healthy eyes aren't just about clear sight—they're tied directly to how your brain takes in and makes sense of information. Happy eyes mean a happy brain.
This is why vision care reaches into nearly every part of daily life. Clear, comfortable vision affects how efficiently you work, how safely you drive, and how well children learn and develop in the classroom. When your eyes are strained, fatigued, or unable to focus properly, everything from productivity to safety to quality of life can suffer—often without you realizing the cause.
Regular eye care protects more than your eyesight. It safeguards your independence, your performance, and your overall well-being. By caring for your vision today, you're investing in how fully and confidently you'll engage with the world for years to come.

"What a wonderful experience. Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Emily took the time with me to help me with my issue. Elevation Vision is now my go-to. Thank you to all of them!"

"What a gem of a find! We recently took the whole family for eye exams here, and they were good with all of the ages, even the youngest ones. They have some pretty cool equipment, so you don’t have to get your eyes dilated. They can make the glasses in-house with their edger the same day if they have the lenses in stock. The doctors and staff are so friendly. I highly recommend checking them out."

"This place was recommended to us when we moved to Parker a few years ago. Now my entire family sees Dr. Lemburg and Dr. Moen. They are both great — especially with my chronic dry eyes!"
