bboy_mn replies:

In one interview she replied to a question about people/Harry using
their eyes for magic. She replied, "...uuhhhh.... Maybe."

In a BBC interview in the fall of 2001, she had this to say...

Q(BBC): Now, can I ask you: are there any special wizarding powers in
your world that depend on the wizard using their eyes to do something?
Bit like


A(JKR): Why do you want to know this?

Q: I just vaguely wondered.

A: Why?

Q: Well because everyone always goes on about how Harry's got Lilly
Potter's eyes?

A: Aren't you smart? There is something, maybe, coming about that. I'm
going to say no more. Very clever.

So, while it is only implied, there is some significants to Harry's eyes.
