I agree that there is a good chance we'll see an Infinity Stone in Doctor Strange. I'd agree with the theory that it'll be the Eye of Agamotto. For one: most people seem to be basing this off of "the Stones spell out Thanos" theory and that its Strange's "necklace". The primary reason this could never work is because the Eye is too important to the character it comes from and by the end of Infinity Wars odds are the Stones will all be lost again. They have never used a Stone for something that could not be replaced with something else. Examples: the Tesseract is the MCU version of a Cosmic Cube and there are tons of them, the Aether and Orb were basically being used as super weapons, and the Mind Stone is used as a power source (first by the Sceptre and now by Vision). Vision does need it to keep functioning, but honestly it wouldn't surprise me if after Thanos takes it Tony pulls out a version of the solar gem Vision typically uses and says he had it made in the event the Stone was stolen. I doubt the people at Marvel will stop this trend with the final 2 Stones.
