Sensing Light. ... Both rods and cones are sensitive to light. The difference between them is that the rods allow us to see in very dim light but don't permit detection of color, while the cones let us see color but they don't work in dim light.

Vision is posible because of the sensation of light. In dim light, light doesn' properly enters our eye. As the amount of light entering eye is low, cilliary muscles have to do more work to adjust the focal length of our lens for vision even in dim light and we feel stressed to read something in dim light. This is the why we cannot properly see in dim light.

pallavi23: but visibility in dim light is not possible in absence of rods even after the accurate adjustment
pallavi23: of focus by the cilliary muscles. we can have the example of owls.
