Limits
Donna Dunlap
Donna was able to see perfectly in the dark. As a child, she used this aspect of her ability to read under the covers without a light. She noticed "Blake" watching her after 10 pm at night. (Donna's Big Date, Part 1)
Donna could also see great distances. In school, she was able to see things written on a teacher's desk while sitting in the back row. It is unknown exactly how far she could see, but at night she was able to see "Blake" from half a block, at a distance of 245 meters (804 feet) and shoot him squarely in his night vision goggles. During the day, Donna was able to clearly make out people through the windows of an airplane flying at 32,000 feet.
Donna's vision also allowed her to see great details. In high school, she was able to see the individual details on snowflakes.
The Company's assignment tracker notes that Donna had an enhanced visual cortex, the part of the brain that processes visual images, and that her visual range was on par with predatory birds.
Although not demonstrated, Felicia claimed that an aspect of Donna's ability was x-ray vision. (Career Choices)
Alexander French
Alexander's telescopic vision manifested during 2011 and Homeland Security became aware of it. He and his wife noticed that his vision was improving, though Alexander did not think it was extreme enough to be considered an evo ability. Despite this, Alexander was able to see a dent on the gas tank of Noah's rental car from his front porch. (Save the Cheerleader, Destroy the World, Chapter 14)
