Indeed the lands changed for whole Beleriand was drowned after the war of wrath. But I remember that Eonwe gave the elves the choice to stay in ME or to come with him back to Aman and stay there. I guess the elves we see in ME in the 3rd age are the elves who refused to go to Aman (except Thranduil's elves which are Moriquendi).

So some years later Eregion was filled with elves and dwarves from Khazad-Dum. The Elven-Rings were made. The Last Aliance kicked the Dark Lord out and Imladris and Lorien were found and 'created' with the elven-rings.
