Is Indoor Tanning Safer then Regular Sun Tanning?

One of the major controversies of tanning is that, indoor tanning is a safer method compared to regular sun tanning. There is enough evidence out there though to prove that wrong. It is said that tanning beds are more likely to damage ones eyes and burn the skin easier because one is in such a confined close area . Also, tanning beds are not approved for all people. It is ecommended that pregnant women, people on certain medication or people with certain illness do not tan.
