I could imagine that it will change the way you perceive things. There are experiments where people got goggles that switched the left and right eyes and people adjusted after a few days.

Or even simple glasses which turn the view upside down. Human eyes were able to adjust itself (or the image) correct way after few hours.

  I had a copy of some Merleau-Ponty work in which this experiment was commented, IIRC the experimenter did really think his brain was damaged when the world appeared upside down to him without the glasses.
