    That’s a really poor way to describe it. I don’t have superhuman vision, but I do have photosensitivity to the point I feel blinded in bright sunlight without eye protection. I don’t have superhuman hearing, but I will lay awake at night due to the buzzing sound of a transformer that other people swear they can’t hear, because I have limited ability to filter out sounds. My senses aren’t better than a neurotypical person’s, they’re just constantly heightened. My dark vision is a lot better than most people’s though, so it’s not all bad I guess.
