Then again I got opaque colored contacts, so the contacts have no color around the pupil hole, where light comes in (if they had color there I wouldn't be able to see lol). Tinted contacts (translucent color) that cover the pupil hole I guess could help with light sensitivity? ...though, I recently bought Illusions contacts which are opaque around the pupil and tinted over the pupil, and they still make me sensitive to light. So idk. Maybe it's a personal preference thing.

I think Jesterhester might be on to something. Maybe it's the fact that having contact lenses on your eyes makes them more sensitive period.
I'm a little confused about your use of the word "opaque." Opaque is the opposite of transparent, isn't it? A window is transparent and a brick wall is opaque, right?
