Why do my eyes feel really uncomfortable after I went tanning?

Question

Ive been going for my first time this week it's been like 4 days and weds after tanning my eyes started to feel really wierd an uncomfortable and they still feel like that today....I can see fine they just feel wierd...i used those stickers that the tanning salon gives you to put over your eyes but they kept on unsticking while I was in the bed so i had to hold them down with my fingers...I'm like really scared that my eyes are like damaged now...what should I do go to the eye doctor? They still feeel like that at the moment.....uhhhhh =[

Answer 1

try some Visene or moisturizing eye drops... they're probably just dried out.. or the skin around the eyes is dried out.... I burnt my eyelids once and holy c**p did it hurt, but it felt weird for days afterward.

Answer 2

Go to the doc, you have probably burned your eyeballs. Wear sunglasses and don't go to the tanning salon until they are better

A young girl in Australia got melanoma and eventually died from tanning in the machines. Click the link to read her story  Be careful and don't overdo it  

Answer 3

you actually CAN burn your eyes in those beds...if it's a must for you to tan, at least invest in some goggles rather than the stickies...the cornea of the eye is the fastest healing part of your body should be cleared up in a day or two. But please take better precautions in those cancer beds!

Answer 4

Visene or moisturizing eye drops; yes worked for me. or you can put vasaline around your eyes, like how you would apply eye shadow.
