Are they stock or aftermarket headlights, Imo after market headlights make the adjustment screw/bolt more obvious so the owner can see it and spot it quicker, but if they are factory headlights, have a look around there should be a screw/bolt positioned near or next to the bulb behind the healight obviously, first of all I would check that the bulbs are correctly in and secured by the pin at the back before you try adjusting the angle .

There should be two gear-like screws down some holes on top of the headlight housing. Get a large philips head screwdriver and turn the gears in the hole. One gear is horizontal adjustment, the other is vertical. This information should be in your Honda Manual

So you dont blind oncoming traffic, follow these instructions to get the aiming correct:
