The mask can help reduce the amount of glare (similar to the black paint that football players wear all the time) which will ultimately assist with the raccoon's night vision. This is an important feature since the raccoon is a nocturnal animal.

Why is there a black mask around raccoons' eyes?

Raccoons have marks around their eyes. It's just a natural thing to happen. If you have brown hair, that's just like saying "Why do you have brown hair?" Or "Why do you have eyes?" But robbers/burgalars have a mask around their eyes to imitate raccoons. Raccoons steal things out of people garbages. There's no REAL reason why raccoons have the marks around their eyes.
