Defensive techniques vs eye pokes

[WildWestWhoopAss]

An eye poke is the single most effective martial arts technique in the mma game, and especially in the UFC.
It is also a technique found in many traditional martial arts.
Does anyone know if there are specific techniques in TMA to defend against eye pokes?
