contact lens for myopia, astigmatism and presbyopia, all at once - is it possible?

Hello im 22 years old with retinal detachment and cataract surgery histories in both my eyes. I'm myopic, astigmatic and also presbyopic and currently using progressive glasses. I'm wondering whether i can use contact lenses instead. I did some research but i couldnt find a definitive answer. There's contact lenses for astigmatism or presbyopia but i could not find one with both.

Yes its possible you might be able to wear contacts but the success rate will be low and they would have to be bifocal contacts or monofocal contacts ( one far  one read)

See an eye care professional who specializes in contact lenses (probably an optometrist).  There are now many brands of multifocal contacts on the market.  Or you could try monovision.  Or you could wear contacts to correct your distance vision and progressive glasses with plano tops.  This option would allow you to lose your specs in many situations.

Thanks for help. As for monovision i don't think it would work for me. I have cataract surgeries in both eyes so they can't really focus anymore and i have different levels of sight and visual field in my eyes because of retinal surgeries. I'll consult my doctor in the next appointment.

Sometimes (mini) monovision works well for people with some retinal damage in one or both eyes.  It's worth asking about.  Maybe the best alternative would be correcting both eyes for distance with contacts.  You would only need to wear glasses for near/intermediate vision activities, leaving you free of glasses for almost all social activities.
