2016 Headlight Adjustment

Son driving the (new to me) RDX home following me the other night and it appeared the driver side headlights were very bright, probably tilted upward. Searching here for help identifying the fix I've encountered threads that just don't match what I'm finding in my engine bay.

Attaching photos of what appear to be adjusters: knobs on both the passenger and driver sides with up and down arrows directly beneath them. Am I correct in assuming these are the up/down adjusters?

it's the 10 mm bolt, not the 'knob'

that 'knob' is actually a stop for the hood height adjustment

Thank you both for your help. Obviously I have a lot to learn about this vehicle but you've pointed me in the right direction. Much appreciated. I hope one day to be able to contribute something worthwhile.

Thanks again.
