IS IT HARMFUL TO WEAR CONTACTS WHEN TANNING INDOORS?
*as taken from the Wolff System Technology Corporation’s Frequently Asked Questions Booklet When the eyes are kept closed and proper protective eyewear worn, UV light is blocked from penetrating the eye or lens. However, the heat generated by indoor tanning equipment could cause the eye to dry a bit, thereby making the lens uncomfortable. Just as one should moisturize the skin after tanning, you may also use eye drops recommended by your optometrist to remedy dryness. WHEN IS THE SUN THE STRONGEST *as taken from the Wolff System Technology Corporation’s Frequently Asked Questions Booklet The suns rays are the strongest between the hours of 10:00 am and 2:00 p.m. UVB rays (the UV light most responsible for burning) are more intense in summer months. Therefore, it is especially important to apply sunscreen during this time to minimize your risk of sunburn.
