[Solved] Eclipse UI very buggy and messy

I haven't used Eclipse in a while, but I've used it before on my system with no errors. I opened it today and the whole UI is extremely buggy, and practically unusable. The bottom and right side of the dialog boxes are 'cut off', just white so you can't see what's there. This is the first example of what I mean.

As you can see, the bottom and right sides are just white, so you can't even read the buttons on the bottom of the dialog box.
I then went into the Preferences window (which of course displayed the same issue) to see if maybe a setting was screwed up. I decide to change the theme in hopes of fixing the problem by refreshing the theme, and by setting it to the dark theme I came across some more interesting bugs:

Even the buttons that aren't cut off from the bottom and right sides don't display any text! Furthermore, the File, Edit... buttons on the top of the Eclipse window look very strange. This doesn't really bother me, but may help in troubleshooting.

I tried to downgrade the eclipse-java package, however unfortunately I ran pacman -Scc recently so I don't have the tarball of the previous eclipse package.

Has anyone seen this before, or does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks,
wadawalnut

See if the parameter from post #3 from this thread helps.

Thanks, that --launcher.GTK_version fix from your link solved the problem.
