Do I have to take my contacts out when i use a sunbed or booth?
Always wear proper sunlamp goggles. Many people have no trouble whatsoever when leaving their contact lenses in while sun tanning in a sunbed or booth. Heat from the sunlamp product may cause dryness and mild to moderate discomfort for some contact lens wearers. Experiences vary widely. It certainly is safe from the UV perspective. There is not really any appreciable UV penetrating the sunlamp goggle. Thus, here is no risk of the eye or contact lens being damaged by UV rays. Try tanning with your contact lenses in. If you find this uncomfortable, then take them out before tanning next time.
