The reason Sasuke was able to counter the Infinite Tsukuyomi is because of his Rinnegan, which has only ever been called a Rinnegan in every source. Never a "Full Power Rinnegan" anywhere and Madara's eye is a Rinne Sharingan, NOT a Rinnegan, there is a difference. Madara wasn't affected cause he cast it, Sasuke was able to counter it with his Rinnegan and Susanoo. If the Rinnegan has the ability to counter the most powerful visual genjutsu in existence, logic would dictate that it could counter any other visual genjutsu. That combined with the fact that genjutsu (other than sound) has never been used on a Rinnegan user when it could have been multiple times goes to show that is highly unlikely that it will work on the Rinnegan.
