Throughout the world, the proper verbal salutation for a Catholic bishop is "Your Lordship". In the United States, which dislikes such monarchial forms of address, "Your Excellency" is used. If writing to a bishop, you would address him as "The Most Reverend". When saluting an archbishop, you would say, "Your Grace."
You must remember that even though he is retired that he is still a bishop and a priest. Ordination ispermanent and therefor retired or not he deserves the title and respect of his position. It might be the case though that he wants to be called by a different title in which case it would be best to oblige.

No, Your Eminence is a title use to address Cardinals. To address a bishop you just use the word bishop in front of their names like "Bishop Lamberto" or "Bishop Carlos". When writing to them you could add an opening like... "To The Most Reverend Bishop Lamberto"

It means that the man is still considered a bishop but is retired from regular Church service. A new man is now the bishop of his former diocese.
