Harry s Eyes For what it s worth there will be spoilers here unrelated to JUST Harry Potter character One of the themes that was supposed to be better explained was the constant reference to Harry having his mother s eyes This was stated or confirmed by the author several times in various interviews Admittedly I read the book quickly but I never noticed anything new about his eyes other than the comment at one point that emphasized that he had exactly her eyes or something like that I came to this page to see if anyone had mentioned it yet and seeing how no one has if anyone did catch what was so special about Harry having Lilly s eyes please add it to the article Thanks
