Summary This project focuses on understanding how social determinants of health, such as demographic and socioeconomic status affect survival outcomes for patients with eye cancer in West Texas. This study aims to contribute valuable insights that can help shape public health interventions and policies. Our research is novel, as it is a topic that has not been previously investigated, with the potential to drive public health efforts to improve healthcare infrastructure in West Texas. Impact Statement Results of this project will inform stakeholders about the prognosis of ocular cancer in West Texas, a region that is largely considered to be medically underserved and ultimately heath care for such patients. By focusing on the role of socioeconomic status and lifestyle factors, we aim to highlight the challenges faced by socially disadvantaged populations in accessing specialty care. Our findings will help drive public health policies to address these disparities and improve healthcare infrastructure in the region. Ultimately, this work will contribute to the larger global effort to reduce cancer-related health inequities and improve survival outcomes for patients.
