I have to admit that I have been waiting for years to find out what is up with Lily’s eyes and the fact that Harry has them. I keep thinking that JK Rowling didn’t mean to make her statement about them so important, but then another character in the books will bring up the fact that Harry has his mother’s eyes and I start wondering again.
Old magic is what protected Harry, old magic from his mother’s side of the family. And he has his mum’s eyes… anyone else stumped? Or am I pulling at straws??!?

harry having lily's eye is a very important thing in the last book.
the snape/lily supporters were right; well, mostly, anyways. snape has been in love with lily since he was 9 years old. sweet, isn't it? but, snape ruined it for the both of them when, after being humiliated by james, sirius, remus, and peter, he called her a 'mudblood.'
so lily did have the choice between life and death.
if you ask me, though, i think she had choosen the better solution, even if it did lead to her untimely end.
It is important that Harry has Lily's eyes. This may mean that he is more like her (by personality, as the eyes may show into his mind) than his father, even if he looks more like him. (Didn't Sirius point that out by the fire in book 5 when Harry said it was a bad idea for him to come to Hogsmede? That Harry was less like his father than he had thought?) And after what James did to Snape in the pensive, I kinda am glad for Harry. He DOES have his mother's personality, because I don't see Harry levitating anyone for the fun of it, unless it was someone who really deserved it. Like Draco.
