bboy_mn:

Kind of makes you go 'hummmm...'. Suddenly I see Harry spending the
entire books 7 wearing a pair of chrome/mirror finish clip-on sunglasses.

Well, we can associate glasses with eye, and the association with eyes
has always been to Harry having his mother's eyes, and for some
reason, we have always associated that with a strength or perhaps a
tool/weapon. The above could now imply that having Lily's eyes is not
a strength but a weakness.

But then who knows.
