What Does Numbness Above The Eyes Indicate?

Hi my sister is 75 Year’s old & had a cataract removed 5 days ago, she is still experiencing numbness in the forehead above the eye, she feels it may have improved from the onset but it has not disappeared altogether should we wait for a few more days or seek an opinion straight away .
