Using a 2inch eyepiece in a 1.25 via adapter

Hi guys new to all this would it be possible to use a 2inch eyepiece in a 1.25 focuser via an adapter? The scope is a 10inch dob 1250 focal length, the only reason I ask is because I sometimes see a great eyepiece used for a great price but they are 2inch, let's say a wide fov eyepiece , would the fov be affected and would the image still fill the whole eyepiece , I know the field stop in a 1.25 is 27mm max apparently but could someone show me the formular to work out the total fov I would see, and has anyone used a 2inch via adapter in a 1.25 or is it a waste of time , thanks guys
