Basking light versus tube light?

[Lexylexyy]

What does the basking light exactly do for a bearded dragon and it’s terrarium ?

 

[Claudiusx]

The basking light provides the heat needed for the dragon.
It stimulates a more natural environment.
And it dilates the eyes to protect the eyes from the harmful uvb rays.
