Why Harry DIDN'T Have His Mother's Eyes - Harry Potter Explained

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing one of the biggest oversights in the history of cinema- Harry's eyes. More specifically, we're going to be unpacking WHY on earth Harry's eyes looked NOTHING like his mothers despite being it reinforced time and time again that they resembled hers entirely.

As a matter of fact, Harry's eyes are mentioned a whopping 20 times across all of the books, with 9 of these instances making some sort of comparison to his mother, Lily.

The list of characters known to have remarked on Harry's eyes includes (but is not limited to)the likes of Hagrid, Ollivander, Dumbledore, Mrs.Weasley, Rita Skeeter, Elphias Doge, Slughorn and more. Slughorn even discussed Harry's eyes in relation to Lily's on more than one occasion!
