First , Please use code tag to your input code.
second , use
Code:
grep with -w .

Quote:
-w, --word-regexp
Select only those lines containing matches that form whole words. The test is that the matching substring
must either be at the beginning of the line, or preceded by a non-word constituent character. Similarly, it
must be either at the end of the line or followed by a non-word constituent character. Word-constituent
characters are letters, digits, and the underscore.

Just in case of perl:
Code:
 perl -ne 'print $_ if /\b810\b/'

Using awk
awk '/\<810\>/' file
or
awk '/ 810 /' file
