Use the dip-stick in future. That is what it's there for.

The warning light relates to a pressure fault not to the level. Hopefully you have got away with it, but keep an eye on oil-level, blue smoke coming from the exhaust and any 'drips' of oil when you have parked your car for a while.

Never, ever overfill an engine...
