I don't see anything. - The double negative is considered bad form in English (though not in Spanish). - samdie, Feb 27, 2011

No veo nada is better than No miro nada for I can't see or I don't see. Mirar means to look.

Yes and No. It is a literal translation, correct as far as meaning goes, but the correct English would be I don't look at anything.
