Aspects of embodiments relate to a surgical device for assisting a user of the device to cut a circular incision in an anterior lens capsule tissue, the device comprising an arm member having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the distal end of the arm member is operative to receive a cutting member; and an actuator arrangement comprising an actuating handle operatively coupled with the arm member, such that, responsive to an operating input provided at the actuating handle, the distal end of the arm member traverses a circular path around a first axis of the tissue to cause the cutting member to form a circular incision in the tissue along the circular path.
