As far as I know it's ungrammatical to use the verb form "seeing" when perception is involved - do you mean specifically the gerund seeing, or any use of to see? Either way, it sounds wrong to this US English speaker: we use "seeing" to mean "perceiving" all the time.

However, I'm seeing two interpretations which are perfectly acceptable in correct English. These may not match the originally intent in the argument, but they're acceptable. Firstly, "see" can mean to determine something. "I'll see who's at the door, and I'll see whether they're here about the car." Now consider the following exchange:
They're definitely not interchangeable. If you start saying I am seeing instead of I can see, people will notice you're talking like a foreigner.

I’m not seeing anything now would be ok for Sarah to say; the present progressive, and more importantly, the now convey the contrast between the new and the previous states of affairs. For Alex, the simple I don’t see anything would be the most natural for (A). In any event, I think it less likely that Alex would use the now at all, because the now seems to suggest a contrast about what he ...

(3) The debug option can be very helpful for seeing what, at first glance, looks like what a bunch of random characters does like. But this one is conventionally erroneous like the first one.
Idiomatically, What do you see? can also be taken to mean What are you capable of seeing? (As a human being, what do you see?) The answer could be the wavelengths of light observable by the human eye.
