OverviewAI-generated summary

Joseph Toma's research focuses on ophthalmic surgery outcomes and complications. He has investigated the comparison of complications and visual outcomes between combined phacovitrectomy and stand-alone phacoemulsification, as well as the outcomes of cataract surgery complicated by zonular dialysis. His work also includes a multicenter comparative study on the risk of zonular dialysis in fellow eye cataract surgeries and the risk factors for late intraocular lens displacement in a multinational study. Additionally, Toma has examined the risk of posterior capsule ruptures in fellow-eye cataract surgeries. His publications also touch upon ocular manifestations secondary to cocaine abuse and the use of Ologen implants in childhood glaucoma surgeries. Outside of ophthalmology, he has contributed to research on the design and testing of a CubeSat-based deployable robotic arm for small satellite servicing and debris removal applications. Toma's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 3, with 10 total publications and 18 total citations.
