Hello! Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor service'!

I understand your concerns and would recommend performing a brain CT scan or MRI. The cataract surgery does not seem to be related to the forehead numbness, but a brain MRI would help investigate for any possible infection.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
