Yes, the light form the sun enables you to see and you can feel the sun's energy warming you when you stand in the sun. You also receive the sun's energy indirectly in the food you eat, all the energy in your food comes from the sun and is put there by plants which capture sunlight and store it as carbohydrates.

Humans eat meat, meat eats plants, and plants get their energy from the sun's light. The sunlight shining on a plant turns into heat energy, which is absorbed and used to keep the plant alive.

Indirectly I suppose, plants produce their food, glucose, via photosynthesis, and they get their energy from absorbing sunlight using chlorophyll. Human's then eat plants to get their energy, and we also eat animals, which either eat plants, or eat animals that eat plants, etc.

Humans do not depend on sun for energy. They depend on sun via plants or plant eating animals for energy.

Why is the human body unable to convert the sun's energy to carbohydrates?

The human body is unable to convert the sun's energy to carbohydrates because it has no photosynthetic structures.Plants do have such structures, called chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll, which is a photosensitive chemical which transforms energy from light into chemical energy to help break water into hydrogen and oxygen, and break carbon dioxide into carbon and oxygen, so they can re-combines into assemblages of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, otherwise known as carbohydrates.
