What kind of UVB light do you use? Is it a screw-in, cfl or compact type?

Poor tortoise!
Do you bring him outside at all in the bright sun? What heat lamps do you have? What about for uvb?

Is your light a coil or a mercury vapor?
One of these?
Most of the eye issues we get are from dehydration or the use of one of these horrible lights.
