Wow. There have been libraries full of books written on that question. I don't know how to post an answer that will have meaning in a forum such as this (I tried, but stopped after I'd written about five pages worth of text and was still only at the beginning.)
There is a difference between seeing and seeing. The former is done with the simple five senses. The latter is done with one's total perception. This total perception includes much more than sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. It's a perception that has to do with an innate connection to and understanding of that which is indescribable to simple five senses but is real nonetheless.
Carlos Castaneda dealt extensively with seeing in most of his books. That could be a place to start.
