X-Ray Vision

The power to see through solid objects or people with one’s eyes. Not to be confused with Infrared Vision.

Also Called

 * Penetration Vision


 * Transparent Vision

Capability
The user’s eyes emit a ray frequency that enables for a transparency effect (i.e. x-ray) to visually penetrate solid objects or even see within objects. Can be used for medical motives, to perceive cancers, tumors, or even blackened lungs the basic human eye perception cannot normaly percieve. The skill of percieving a specific location (i.e. artery) is given by partial reflection of the ray from each specific surface surveyed. The direction of incoming light allows for a positioned focus on the depth of a viewing surface.



Limitations

 * Users may not be able to see through Lead.
 * Users may be restricted by multiple dense surfaces. Looking through more than one wall would be nearly impossible.

Universe Differences
Like actual x-rays, Superman's X-Ray vision can't penetrate the dense metal Lead. Bizarro, who has the reverse powers of Superman, is only able to see through Lead with his power but not through anything else.



Applications

 * See through solid objects.
 * See through organic matter, allowing them to survey a person who could be injuried or sick.
 * Trace nerves and bodily function activities.
 * Allows to pinpoint physical weaknesses.
