Is there a GUI function or other method to convert caret style power (^) to the power() function?

I have a big block of Matlab code, which uses the caret-style power function (a^b) a lot, e.g.
a^2
(a+b)^3
(a*b+c)^4
I would like to convert all these to using the function `power` instead of the caret. So the code above should become
power(a, 2)
power(a+b, 3)
power(a*b+c, 4)
Is there any method (GUI based or otherwise) to automatically do this?
I've tried writing a regular expression to do this, but it turns out I have to write several different expressions, and do lots of passes to cover all the different possibilities.

I dont think there isn’t a built‐in tool that refactors every occurrence of the caret operator into a call to power( , ) automatically. In practice, to do such a conversion either write one or more regex‐based find-and-replace scripts which often requiring multiple passes to cover all syntactic cases; or perform the change manually. https://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/regexp.html
There is a discusion forum here for users who were facing the same challenges as you. https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/313204-feature-request-refactoring-tool
