PED IN EYE

Hello doc can i ask one more question
I had OCT scan 6 months ago and showed  litlle PED far away from macula doctor writte on report  SMALL PED AND CSR,now repeated OCT scan show complete resorbtion of PED,(on the OCT image report initial picture of my retina showed red area ,now is green)
Doctor advised me to just monitor and repeat OCT in few months.
Pls can you advise me,it is good sign that PED resolved on its own?
I have still good vision on that eye but very slight bend lines and grey spot when blink against bright surface.
Thank you a lot for your respones.

Yes good sign Pigmented Epethelial Detachment (PED) has gone away but if you still have wavyness you may still have macular swelling (edema) from CSR
Thx doc..
How to know? Central part of image from OCT  shows nothing ,my initial findings are PED  above fovea,or macula, center part is always clear but i have wavyness..
Will that also pass if i wait or  to ask for some more advanced scan?
My doctor is retina specialist and she is not concerced,she says I shouldn't have any symptoms at all if we look at the OCT image..
So it is ok to wait new check for 3 months or to go sooner?
Thx doc again for response,always helpfull
I cannot answer wether it is okay or not to wait. Just cannot do that remotely.
