"But how can I know that camera calibtation was optimal? "
That's a tricky question. A good rmse (well below a pixel for most cameras) is a good hint, but not the perfect solution as a calibration with a single pattern could also give a good rmse but a bad calibration in total.
"And how to visualize calibration effect?" You can create a grid of points across your undistorted image and use cv::undistortPoints to get their original poses. Draw lines between these two points and you get an understanding of the distortion effect.
