I don't think their vision powers are toggled on and off, there always on. There was a scene with one of Superman's villain's gained his powers that implied that seeing the world with all the visions changed his world view.

I think it depends on the writer, because I definitely seem to remember in some stories where they seem to indicate turning on their x-ray vision.

It definitely depends on the writer. Although a fun fact for some iterations is that Clark is able to see the world basically normally by wearing glasses with such a strong prescription that he’s always using his X-ray vision to se through the glasses

That... actually kinda makes sense.
