OverviewAI-generated summary

Kaersti L. Rickels' research focuses on ophthalmology, with recent publications exploring the ocular manifestations of various conditions. This includes work on persistent syphilitic ocular manifestations, ocular complications secondary to cocaine abuse, and the development of new-onset uveitis in the context of Long COVID. Rickels has also investigated innovative approaches, such as the CARING cannula for retinal injury and virtual surgical planning for mandibular reconstruction. Their scholarship includes work on the risk of posterior capsule ruptures in fellow-eye cataract surgeries and the evaluation of ophthalmology oral examinations in a virtual setting. Rickels' scholarly output is reflected in an h-index of 2 and 16 total publications. Key collaborators include Sami H. Uwaydat, Deanne L. King, Marco H. Ji, and Ahmed F.
