Forward Looking Statements

Any statements in this presentation about future expectations, plans and prospects for the Company,including statements about the advancement and development of the Company’s product candidates, thetiming and conduct of the Company’s clinical trials, the Company’s plans for regulatory submissions, thepotential utility of the Company’s product candidates and other statements containing the words"anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend", "goal," "may", "might," "plan," "predict," "project,""target," "potential," "will," "would," "could," "should," "continue," and similar expressions, constituteforward-looking statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result ofvarious important factors. Such forward-looking statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties thatcould cause the Company’s clinical development programs, future results, performance or achievements todiffer significantly from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks anduncertainties include, among others, those related to the timing and costs involved in commercializingReSure® Sealant, the initiation and conduct of clinical trials, availability of data from clinical trials andexpectations for regulatory submissions and approvals, the Company’s scientific approach and generaldevelopment progress, the availability or commercial potential of the Company’s product candidates, thesufficiency of cash resources and need for additional financing or other actions and other factors discussedin the “Risk Factors” section contained in the Company’s quarterly and annual reports on file with theSecurities and Exchange Commission. In addition, the forward-looking statements included in this pressrelease represent the Company’s views as of the date of this release.

Program and Pipeline Progress

Near-term Milestones Announcedat AAO@OIS 2014

Progress Made in 1 year

Glaucoma • Initiate enrollment for Phase 2b trialfor OTX-TP to treat glaucoma

• Study complete – topline results reported• Plans for Phase 3 underway

Allergy • Phase 2 results for OTX-DP in allergic conjunctivitis

• Results reported in Phase 2• Completed first Phase 3 and reported topline

results

Post-op • Complete Phase 3a and 3b clinical trials for OTX-DP post-surgical inflammation and pain

• Plan for submission of NDA Q2, 2015

• Two Phase 3 studies completed• Third Phase 3 initiated• NDA submitted for pain indication Q3 2015

Anti-VEGF • Demonstrate feasibility for Anti-VEGF hydrogel depot

• Feasibility demonstrated for protein (Stability, release, tolerability shown)

Page 5: Ocular

Implications of sustained release therapy

• Vastly improved compliance leads to more assurance of efficacy and reduced disease progression

– >50% of patients discontinue therapy within 12 months for glaucoma

• No reliance on patient administration or frequent dosing

– Control in the hands of the physician

– Entire course of therapy is assured without errors

– Significantly more convenient

• Low-dose, slow-eluting concentrations minimize “peak dose”-related sideeffects

• Preservative-free medications preserve the ocular surface(1)

Maintain efficacy, improve compliance, better safety profile

OCUL Clinical Development Approach

Since no currently marketed “front of the eye” sustained therapies exist,adjustments from topical drops clinical trial designs needed:

• Use drugs and mechanisms with known efficacy to reduce development risk

• Conduct Phase 2 trials to titrate study:

– Endpoints and timing of endpoints

– Patient population

– Duration of effect

• Apply learning to design and conduct Phase 3

• Gain initial label and pursue label expansion if appropriate
