We've had these blind simulations done as well, where we have the sudden realization we're subjected to our other senses - this reliance creates an extra effort to enhance these senses as we're using them more intensely then otherwise. Also the lack of information coming from sight means you'd have brainpower to allocate elsewhere.
Short-term it felt more like noticing other smaller nuances in hearing, feeling and smelling. I guess like learning to distinguish words in a new foreign language after weeks/months of being in that foreign country.
