In that case, you're probably using a lower resolution for your display. Set the display to its default native resolution and the icons and fonts should return to normal. Since you didn't tell us which Mac you're using, I can't tell you what the normal resolution for it should be. But you should be able to find out for yourself and reset it if it's wrong.
