There are vfx showing the range while you have the shield equipped. It's the same range as the bubble for the "less damage taken from distant enemies" mod for rare enemies.

No, it's measured from roughly the edge of the enemy, so larger enemies especially can count as nearby even if their centre isn't that near the circle.
