hawkeyed
Missing nothing visual
Hawkeyed means having exceptionally sharp vision or being keenly observant.
The term evokes the hawk's renowned ability to spot prey from great distances.
A hawkeyed editor catches every typo; a hawkeyed detective notices details others miss.
The word suggests not just good eyesight but vigilant, penetrating attention: Nothing escapes her hawkeyed scrutiny.
