NEW YORK, July 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims on behalf of purchasers of the securities of Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. ("Ocular" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: OCUL). Such investors are advised to contact Peretz Bronstein or his investor relations analyst, Yael Hurwitz at info@bgandg.com or 212-697-6484.

The investigation concerns whether Ocular and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On July 25, 2016 Reuters reported that the drug developer, Ocular Therapeutix, Inc, said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") had denied approval for its treatment for post-operative eye pain. Ocular said the FDA was concerned about its manufacturing process after a facility inspection, but the letter from the health regulator did not provide any details about the manufacturing deficiencies. Ocular also said there were no clinical issues identified in this letter and expects Dextenza to be approved once the manufacturing concerns were solved. On July 25, 2016 in pre-market trading, Ocular's stock dropped 3% to just $5.01 per share.
