Default Ophthalmic migraine-Eye floaters-Doxycycline

Does anybody know any connection between Doxycycline /Periostat/ and ophthalmic migraine,eye floaters and photophobia/light sensitivity/.
I developed photophobia about two months ago.Now I can see more floaters which are more sensitive to light and sometimes move very fast in all directions inside my both eyes.
Since January I was taking Periostat for three months for my gum disorder.After that I had to stop taking this drug because of side effects. My eyes were checked by MD/retina,sight etc./-everything seems to be OK except these fast moving-bright /like gel/ floaters.They are more visible and annoying now.
It happens almost every day-especially when I look at brighter spots-like:white posters,LCD screens,glare or flashing objects.
Are these side effects reversible?-If yes:How long can they last?
Any ideas please?
