If you want the point of impact to move up, move the rear sight up.

With iron sights you move the rear sight in the direction you want the bullet to move .
If you want the gun to shoot higher move the rear sight up.
If you can't raise the rear sight higher ,either put a shim under the rear sight to raise the whole sight or lower the front sight.
