Like the title states, my lighting is somehow not working properly. Even though the debug screen shows that the light level is currently 0, I am somehow still able to see properly.

Well, if you want an alternative method, use villagers. Just create a small shack with a villager and a door. You can make it really small, and hook it up with pressure plates.
Now villagers will go outside as soon as it get light, and will go inside again when it gets dark. Using this system you have a day-night system.
To make it a little secure you can fence the shack in, leaving just a small space for him to roam around.
If you need some more details feel free to ask, I kept my explanation extremely basic.
This happens when a player burns down a large chunk of forest at once. This can be easily fixed by using MCEdit to relight those chunks:
- Open the world in MCEdit via
Quick LoadorOpen...buttons - Select
Chunk controlin the toolbar - Select the chunks to relight
- Click
Relight - Save the world:

This is because the trapdoors above you block out light, but are considered transparent blocks. Thus, you can still see around you, as it's transparent, but it is light level 0 because it blocks the light source above it, meaning that your hand appears black.
