<snip many great examples of when eyes, usually Snape's, glitter>
May I add one to the list? It's not "glittering" precisely....but I think it
fits your pattern:
'I think I'd better teach you how to *block* unfriendly spells,' said
Lockhart, standing flustered in the midst of the hall. He glanced at Snape,
whose black eyes glinted, and looked quickly away.
(CoS[UK], 144)
It's a glint, not a glitter. Still. Add it to the list? Great analysis,
Porphyria.
