Would that just be referring to brightness control or is it referring to something else? How would I go about turning it down?

Its the brightness control. Turn down the brightness.

Some displays allow you to control the backlight, however most don't have this feature.

backlight control != brightness

Actually brightness controls the black level, its contrast that controls the white level (backlight).
