There is no real significance it is simply a trait that many people noticed about Harry that knew his mother.

== Severus Snape and James Potter hated each other. However, Severus loved Lily Potter and was racked with guilt over his part in her death. Harry looked just like James and every time Snape looked at Harry he was reminded of all the awful things James did to him. Due to this Snape was never able to form a positive relationship with Harry. The exception to Harry's resemblance with James did not include his eyes. Harry had Lily's eyes. This was a constant reminder to Snape of his guilt and of what Voldemort could do. No matter how Snape felt about Harry, it was Lily's eyes that kept Snape committed to Harry and what he had to do to protect him and help him defeat Voldemort at any cost.
