The thing I would be concerned with is not the frequency of anesthesia (having two procedures done weeks apart), but the effect on the eyes when an animal goes under anesthesia. Same with people, care has to be taken that the eyes do not become dry, as the ability to blink is lost. In an animal that is recovering from having eye surgery, using the lubricants normally used in surgeries may not be the best idea, and if time allows, I would feel more comfortable in allowing total healing of the eyes before subjecting the pet to additional anesthesia/surgical procedures, which would involve an increased risk to injury of the eyes until healing is complete.
