eyepatch

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'possible headgear for pirate?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'cheap yet tailored' is the wordplay.
'tailored' indicates anagramming the letters (the letters are customised ).
'cheap'+'yet'='cheapyet'
'cheapyet' is an anagram of 'EYEPATCH'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for eyepatch that I've seen before include "socket cover" , "Cover for optic injury" , "Optical injury cover" , "Pirate's facial attire" .)
