I would recommend accepting that it's not going to settle. If you hope that it will settle, you will look for it every day and it will start to have more power over you. I've also found that while some of my worst floaters are in the center of my vision most of the time, I get more moments without them in the center if I don't observe them: I'm able to center them squarely in the center of my vision if I try, and the more I evaluate them the more I find myself subconsciously centering them in my sight all the time.
Anyways, I've found with this condition that "hoping" for things to get better isn't the best way to go. The only thing I ever "hope" for is that my DVS gets the the point where it's not a decision to go for an FOV, but a required medical procedure.
"Hoping" means that you will keep checking your vision, which is one of the core anxiety-creating behaviors. And this #*#@ is bad enough without the psychological distress it can create.
As dismal as this sounds, I hope it helps. And if it makes you feel any better, I've got a ton of #*#@ in my eyes!! :-)
