If the above doesnt do anything, take a closer look at your lights. I had a very similar problem on a project last semester that no matter what I did the lights were non-existant.
Didnt figure it out until a few months ago, but my issue was the roof & ceiling were too close together. My recessed lights were cutting away the ceiling no problem, but the lights were getting embedded into the roof (or floors above) structure so no light was getting out.
I went into the structure details of the roof & removed the structural layer, so it was basically a thin piece of insulation & roofing material. Then I went into the ceiling details & added the structure for the roof. Essentially the section drawing reads exactly the same, however getting the structure portion into the ceiling instead finally allowed the lights to cut away as needed, and the renderings came out significantly better (albeit 6 months too late).

Its not the ceiling, its the roof/floor directly above the ceiling that Im talking about.
What lights are you using? Stock ones bundled with Revit or custom downloaded ones?

I am 100% positive this is your problem, which is what I am talking about.

There is even a walkthrough video explaining exactly what the issue is and how to fix it.
(I hope posting this link isnt against the rules)
FYI that is WAY too many lights for that space, do you happen to work for the electric company? (just teasin)
