Force Sight
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Force sight, or Force seeing, was a basic Force ability, perhaps related to Force sense. It enhanced the bearer's visual and spatial perception even in the dark or behind walls. 'Seeing' with the Force was a useful skill for as Obi-Wan Kenobi said, "Your eyes can deceive you. Don't trust them". Trained users could have their sight amplified and were able to counter Force persuasion and Force blinding powers.
The Miraluka relied on this power constantly to compensate for their physical blindness. They could not perceive colors but could distinguish organics (even dead) and their alignment from the surrounding environment by their characteristic aura. Most objects, including doors and walls, appeared translucent, allowing to see through them. The Miralukas were the most skilled experts of the technique. Thanks to it, their reflexes were strengthened enormously, the reality didn't have secret for their look.
While this was a Miralukan attribute, it could be taught to other species; for instance, Visas Marr taught the Jedi Exile to use it. Kreia also utilized the Miraluka version of Force Sight after her eyes atrophied due to disuse.
