The UV rays WILL cause blindness in your animal. The main cause of blindness is from black lights. Don't dismiss his ability to see. Beyond this, the UV's can cause cancer to his exposed skin such as the nose and mouth area. Ultraviolet rays are nasty, avoid them. UVA is in blacklights... UVB is in tanning beds.

So is it more intense radiation than a UVA reptile bulb?
