When you do that, your iPhoto library will be upgraded for use with Photos. It would be wise to take a backup of it before importing, if you don't already have one.


Note also - that you will get a second library created containing just your iPhoto images - it won't transfer the images from the iPhoto library into your current library.


If you then want to merge the two libraries there are a number of ways you can do it.
