Topamax & Papilledema?

Hi!
I am the one you answered the question for about the possible Papilledema......well I have another question......I am currently on a few routine meds......they include: Topamax, Zoloft & Abilify. I was wondering if me taking the Topamax (or any of the other meds) would possibly cause me to have the possible Papilledema? I have been on it for almost 2 years now and the possible Papilledema was not seen during last years eye exam.......

Thank you so much in advance! I am trying to get a hold of my Psychiatrist to talk to him about it too but not knowing anything is very unsettling!!
