Yes it could be a floater that you will soon get use to (they often can't be seen when the cataract is in the eye).  Or could be an IOL reflex  or a shadow from incision swelling.

These often go away

The day after cataract surgery, my opthamologist removed the patch on my surgical eye. I noticed a black curve lines on the side of my eye which moves left to right following my eyeball movement. The doctor said probably I am seeing the edge of the lens implanted. My question is this a normal possiblitiy and soon will go away after few weeks of surgery?
