Yes, 'see' can mean 'understand' ("Oh, I see.")
Do you see? can mean "Do you understand?" Though usually it's just said "See?"
Of course, 'see' can also mean, uh, that thing we do with our eyes, when we look at something.

Yes it does.
But you would not use "see" in this sense with a direct object: "Do you see me?" means "Am I visible to you?"; it does not mean "Do you understand me?"
