How Can A Static Spot Caused By Traumatic Optic Neuritis Be Treated?

i suffered from what one ophthalmologist thinks was traumatic optic neuritis last October after jumping into a swimming pool (normally...no accident at all) anyway, i was left with a little static spot in my field of vision (not a floater)...it's like a clear disc that i only see when i look from left to right (not right to left) and it's sometimes barely noticeable, but other times it's very noticeable..and will be accompanied my a warped field of vision around the spot...very strange. when it's good, it's barely noticeable, but when it's bad, it's all very annoying. what gives?
