In described embodiments, an ophthalmic device provides for cell removal. In one embodiment, the ophthalmic device is introduced into the eye to remove cells on the underside of the anterior capsular membrane and the posterior capsular surface that can grow and block vision in an eye following cataract surgery. The ophthalmic device includes a disk with either a cleaning edge or tacky substance, and is inserted via shaft, the shaft coupled directly to the disk and forming a cannula, or optionally coupled to the disk with a separate cannula there between.
