Those of you who would call fouls: Do you also call fouls when a person gets poked in the eye, accidentally, of course.

Most of the time i don't see to poke in the eye. I see the reaction of the player getting hit in the eye. And therefore i know he got poked in the eye. So, in this case, no foul. However, if i see the poke in the eye than yes i have a foul. So, when i see the punch as you described i will call a common foul. The player earned his foul for being stupid. Please don't take the "stupid" literal.
