I could suggest a half face mask (no more than 20-25€), combined with some cheap swim goggles (less than 5€).
Just to note that different chemicals can be used in different places, or in different times so not too sure if this will work where you live. For this reason, I would strongly suggest talking to people that currently attend protests or even better are on a med team, because they can suggest specific antidotes for the tear gas used and have the antidote with you (for you or anyone else). I say this because often people say stuff like wash your eyes with water but depending on the chemicals used, this could make the burning pain worst.
