The correct answer is A.

The verb need is followed by an infinitive (to + verb) and because this is a passive sentence, the verb CUT must be in the past participle form.

CUT is an irregular verb.

Base verb: CUT
Past tense: CUT
Past participle: CUT

The present perfect tense is used to describe experiences.

SEEN is the past participle (or third verb form) of the verb, SEE.

We use the present perfect tense to describe
an experience when the time is not important.

It is very common to use the present perfect tense with the word EVER.
