You may also consider to define an toggle command for
`search-invisible', and bind it in `isearch-mode-map', like this


--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(require 'cl-lib)

(defun isearch-cycle-search-invisible ()
  "Cycle the value of `search-invisible'.
Bound to \\<isearch-mode-map>\\[isearch-cycle-search-invisible] in `iseach'."
  (interactive)
  (setq search-invisible
        (cl-case search-invisible
          ((nil) t)
          ((t)   'open)
          (else  nil)))
  (message "search-invisible: %s" search-invisible)
  (sit-for 1.)
  (setq isearch-success t isearch-adjusted t)
  (isearch-update))

(add-hook
 'isearch-mode-hook
 (lambda ()
   (make-variable-buffer-local #'search-invisible)
   (define-key isearch-mode-map [(meta ?i)] #'isearch-cycle-search-invisible)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This let's you cycle `search-invisible' while isearching with M-i.
