Yeah. If you try hard enough, you can slightly break the correction and directly notice the curvature of the straight lines, especially long ones moving towards you, on the border of your visual field. The eye physically produces a heavily distorted picture, but it's at least partially rectified and the brain does a sort of continuous neural SLAM, what you perceive is the result of it.
