I had this. I don't think it's the antibiotics themselves, but rather the antibiotics chasing the bugs out of the other tissues of our bodies where they have hidden themselves. It went away after awhile.
There is a disease called Morgellons disease. Many people with Morgellons disease end up finding out they have Lyme too.
I was scared this was what was happening to me, but like I said, it went away after awhile.
I always felt less itchy after a detox bath.
As you progress through recovery, your Lyme symptoms will vary to a certain degree. For example, I got tinnitus but only after I started treatment.
I also suggest reading about Herxheimer reactions, which can also cause an increase in symptoms.
Regarding what you are seeing, I suggest getting an eye exam to eliminate the possibility of any common problem.
If you go back to your very first post where you received a "Welcome" message there should be some links to vision problems associated with Lyme.
If not there check under Forums - Medicine and Treatments or Lyme Facts.
Before I got Lyme, I already knew I had deposits on my eye which would cause me to see things. But it did get worse with the Lyme.
Some people are able to actually see the spirochetes as they move through the eye. Yeesh!
