Hi
Welcome to Health care magic

It seems from the history that you are having a scar on the retina following a injury.
Your optometrist is right there is no treatment for retinal scar as of now. Retinal chip transplants which can help this are still under research.
Hope that they can achieve success in this.

Thank you
