The think which you want is Calibration.
There are hardware (which cost a fortune) to do that. And software also.

But in my experience those setting are subjective. Depends on the model of monitor you have, and also your own personal choice.

Best would be to experiment. Its best to set contrast as low as you can, and then increase brightness to a level that don't hurt your eyes.
