I guess I'm the odd man out because I don't think it had one single thing to do with Lily. I think it was all about the relationship between Harry and Snape.

Everyone always says with the exception of his eyes Harry looks almost exactly like James and his eyes are exactly like Lily's. It's quite obvious that Snape has always treated Harry like he's James. In Snape's own memories, we see him admit that he only helps Harry because he's Lily's son and even Dumbledore chastised him for seeing what he wants to see and not who Harry really is.

The eyes are the window to the soul. For the first time, Snape did not look at Harry as pieces of Lily and James. For the first time, Snape saw Harry for who he was, just Harry.
