Maybe the presence of glasses protects his eyes from such spells.

Carri now:
So, would his eyeglasses have protected him from the basilisk 
stare?  Since CofS shows only petrification occuring when seeing the 
eyes through something else, for example, water on the floor, mirror 
(which are reflections) and a ghost and Collin's CAMERA - not 
reflections.  Looking THROUGH the lense of the camera protected 
Colin from death, so could eyeglasses be a form of protection in 
some future appearance of another basilisk?
