So the degree? is that the word? is 800. I need to protect my eyes, but I really love my computer. What should I do? I know taking breaks is one. Actually, is there anything I can do to decrease that degree? or in other word improve my eyes?

Turn the brightness right down.
Change the refresh rate, 60hz will be harmful to your eyes.
Use a lamp to take your focus away from the screen.
If you're eyes really sting due to brightness, it could be photophobia which effects the rods and cones(used to adjust to different brightness levels).
Also try sunglasses.

I change the wallpaper to something dark.
I always have a bright light on top of my head
I have adjusted the brightness.
Mostly I try to look outside of the windows and stare at the trees, grass, etc.
I'm thinking does eating carrot help improve my eyes?

Yes it does.
Carrots contain vitamin A which is also known as retinol. It helps you adjust to light sensitivity better, but doesn't make your vision clearer. That's control by the lens, not the retina.

Using computers hasn't ever affected my eyes much for some unknown reason.
I don't really know what you mean with the "degree".

I'd say you should probably just turn the brightness down and maybe back farther away from it.

Day: Less brightness
Night: More brightness
Is that correct or...?
