Such an option doesn't exist. The only customization possible is "Smart HighLighting":

There is a slight difference because the selected text has also the selection indication, which makes it a bit darker.

If the difference is too slight to see, you may perhaps change the highlight color to make it a lighter color. The difference might then be more noticeable.
