Hello,

I have one 16 bit image and i want to change the opacity of that image. If there is any method in OpenCV please suggest me.

opencv, being a computer-vision library, usually discards alpha/opacity when reading/writing images

so, there most likely isnt any opacity in your image, and opencv is the wrong tool for your job

check img.channels() (in c++) or np.shape(img) (python)

Ok. Is it possible to find transparency of grayscale image ?

no. grayscale images do not contain this information. (think of it, where would it come from ?)

you could convert it to BGRA, and modify the 4th channel, but there's not much builtin for this.

again, wrong tool for your job, this is NOT photoshop.
