If one has a broken bone repaired, unless there are issues in the way the
bone knits, that's a one time.... With cataract surgery, it usually is
only once, but occasionally an additional laser surgery has to be done
to trim the edges, and even less often the cataract does return... Dunno
about other surgeries, but always possible (even when highly unlikely)
that the condition could need additional surgery...
