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.

At my tanning salon it is recommended that one does not wear contact lenses however I use the goggles which protect my eyes and filter out the harmful UV light to some extent. The best solution is probably to just relax, close your eyes....and think of somewhere tropical!!

First of all I don't approve of sunning beds, but if you must use them, then remove your contact lens to be on the safe side.

Very stupid thing to do, the lenses and your eyes will be one unit.
