According to the early 2000s documentary series The Invisible Man, if you gain invisibility through the use of a Quicksilver gland, the Quicksilver shifts the light so some of it will penetrate to your retinas.

Then you wouldn't be completely invisible, at the best, there'd be two floating shadow spots where the light is being absorbed by your retinas.

Quicksilver in the show works like a Star Trek cloaking field. It doesn't make the person invisible, it passed the light around them.

Then, since light cannot reach you, you are effectively blind.
