The power a light bulb consumes is measured in watts. Light output is often described in terms of watts, as wattage was the only measurement distinguishing different light bulbs in the years before CFL bulbs were commonplace.
Light output may also be described in 'candlepower', although this unit of measurement is obsolete and was replaced by the 'candela' in 1948. 'Lumens' are the standard of light measurement in terms of what the human eye can perceive, and you may see these on light bulb packaging occasionally as well.
Incandescent light bulbs are generally measured in watts, indicating the power consumed by the bulb.
The amount of light of light produced is measured in lumens. Fluorescent bulbs produce more lumens per watt than incandescent. LED lights produce more lumens per watt than florescents.
