There's a screen that goes over most gutters that works fairly well. I had reasonable success with the downspouts that had a diverter and hole in the side to 'kick' the leaves out and let the water fall straight down. Don't know what you call the darned things. We had small leaves, I don't think that would work with large leaves. A good building supply store should be able to show you all the options.
