A mechanical surgical device and device are provided for allowing the user to form a circular incision in an intraocular tissue, such as the anterior capsule of the eye, as part of an anterior capsulorhexis. Unlike the prior art, the device of the present invention is comprised of mechanical components, where the mechanical components drive a cutting member in a motion around a fixed pivot point to perform a continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis. Where the pivot point is the location of the slit incision in the cornea or the sclera through which the cutting tip is inserted to access the anterior capsule bag. The present device is hand held, compact and relatively light in weight. The present capsulorhexis device requires only a 1 mm incision in the corneal or scleral tissue. The present invention does not require the manual skill of the user to perform a circular incision.
