Arlen Here:
This is a very deep and interesting thought. And it makes sense. JR
has been talking about Harry has his mother's eyes from Book one. It
has to play out somehow.
However, just to throw a wrench into it.... Snape has been in Harry's
face for 5 years now, you'd think "his eyes" would have done
something to him by now.
Another wrench might be that "because" of his eyes he despises him.
Not to mention DD's man, and his former girlfriend's child (which
probably should have been his).
Harry represents EVERYTHING bad in Snape's past and "his eyes" are
just the icing. It is the one thing he ALWAYS sees and probably
hurts most from it.
Coincindentally, it may be Lily herself who "comes out of Harry or
elsewhere (as she's done before) and urges Snape to help. Or Snape
sees Harry but hears Lily or vice versa through Harry's eyes at
the end.
