Covering for an eye (5)

I believe the answer is:

patch

(Other definitions for patch that I've seen before include "Piece of land, of mending material" , "Piece of material used to cover hole in clothes" , "Material used to cover a tear" , "Mend with piece of material" , "Court plaster" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
