A surgical device includes a generally elongated shaft having a cannulated interior dimensioned for slidably receiving an anchor. A distal end of the shaft includes a cutaway portion and a window. The window may be positioned within the cutaway portion or overlie at least a portion of the distal end of the shaft including the cutaway portion. The window may be transparent or partially-transparent, allowing the window to provide lateral support as well as visualization of an anchor sliding through and/or emerging from the distal end of the shaft. The cutaway portion may be open on at least one side (e.g., a distal-facing side).
