Brightness can be set under systemsettings -> power management. Unfortunately, contrast cannot. There have been workarounds with colorschemes eg: https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/nqkka3/guide_increasing_contrast_on_blurred_screens/
This is not something we ( kubuntu ) can fix. I would suggest doing a feature request upstream bugs.kde.org under systemsettings.
