Nothing can see in complete darkness. Animals and organisms that have evolved in total darkness have developed other ways of sensing their suroundings and have lost their ability to see with 'eyes' all together. Animals, like owls and rodents and night feeding fishes that hunt during the night are called noctural. Just as the human eye's iris opens wider in the dark to let more light in, nocturnal animals have evolved with overly large eyes that have the ability to capture any light that is available.
