BOSTON, July 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Block & Leviton
LLP (www.blockesq.com), a securities litigation firm representing investors
nationwide, is investigating whether Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. ("Ocular" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: OCUL) and certain of its
officers and directors violated federal securities laws.
On Jul 6, 2017, near the close of trading, the investor website Seeking Alpha published
an article entitled "Ocular: A Poke In The Eye," reporting that Ocular is on "the brink of collapse" and that they may be
"misleading investors" about ongoing manufacturing issues and the Company's communications with the FDA about those issues.
On this news, Ocular's stock has fallen more than 30% to close at $7.12 on July 7, 2017, causing tens of millions in losses to shareholders.
If you purchased or otherwise acquired Ocular securities and have questions about your legal rights or possess information
relevant to this investigation, please contact attorney Bradley Vettraino at (617) 398-5600, by
email at bradley@blockesq.com , or by
