The lens on the eye needs to widen to let more light in your eye so you can see more in the dark. It takes time so when the light is actually on, your lens is contracted but suddenly when the light is turned off, the lens takes time to widen so then your can see better.

Humans cannot see in the dark without special equipment. We do not have the special layer in our eyes to reflect light back onto our retinas that nocturnal animals have, so we need more light to see. We just see dark blobs and blurs when we try, or total darkness.
