I don't know what those patterns are, but I think they are a form of electrical background noise that your eyes send to your brain. I think that background noise is always there, but it's more visible when you close your eyes because you're cutting off a lot of light. When you open your eyes, they get busy processing the stronger incoming light patterns, and those override the background noise. Just a theory.
