I recently did this in the shower. I found there were spots I was not cleaning as throughly as I should and hadn't noticed as I was always thinking about whatever shower thought. But without eye sight I had to relearn to shower a little and it allowed me to pay more attention to what I'm actually doing.
My whole life I have experimented with what losing a sense would be like and which I would rather have lost should that occur. Mostly between sight and hearing, which I recently found out that noise canceling headphones are tge greatest thing in the world. So being overly stimulated is something I never noticed, yet experienced often.
I also walk around my house sometimes, not near the stairs, with my eyes closed just to see how well my mind can keep me oriented. It usually doesn't last very long.
