Tech readouts and things. Especially with helmets that have compound eyes and such, Now Gaim got away with this. Almost every helmet was a visor style in one way or another, but there were exceptions. Like Marika. Personally, I think the helmet with the best vision would've been Wizard. Basically his entire helmet in every form was the visor. Like wearing a fishbowl. Kamen Rider Mysterio. The worse? Fourze. I think. Eye holes plus fin ears. So even if he had peripheral vision he wouldn't be able to see past the fin ears on the sides of his head.

I think we have three categories here: Cyborgs, suit wearers, and magic / supernatural beings.

Cyborgs, like most of the Showa Riders, have greatly improved vision through their upgraded bodies so they can see better than a normal human in a suit. Even though the Riders from Blade mostly fall into the suit wearing category I've seen a POV shot were a Rider sees in a honeycomb pattern and can zoom into each hexagon individually. That's kinda how I assume the cyborgs with the bug eyes see, only better.

Suit wearers are like you described Birth, they have visors and computer readouts to aid their vision.

Magic / Supernatural are Riders who transform via magic or out-worldly powers, those I assume just see normally as if the helmet wasn't there and have special powers depending on how their abilities aid them. Because magic. It might also be a mixture of both cyborg-like and mechanical vision.
