What Causes Visual Trails And After Images While Moving The Eyes?

I recently started experiencing visual trails when moving my eyes, also see afterimages. i was on metformin for diabetes but was told to go off of it due to the vision problem. Also, have slight diplopia in one eye at night when looking at a sign for example that is lit up. Also, took cylexa for about five days in January. ANy of this related? Is it palniposia? What should I do
