Brief Answer:
This is a good sign.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and I would try my best to help you.

I have noted your clinical details. Based on this, there is no evidence of raised intracranial pressure (ICP). Absence of swelling means there is no papilledema, which is a good news.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
