I believe the answer is:

distract

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

'draw eyes away' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'from fruit cart sidney wheeled' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'wheeled' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (letters are wheeled back).
'tcartsid' is hidden in the letters of 'fruit cart sidney'.
'tcartsid' written backwards gives 'DISTRACT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for distract that I've seen before include "Subject to diversion" , "Side track" , "Puzzle" , "Sidetrack - bewilder" , "Cause to lose concentration" .)
