Accidentally set iPhone 5c to very large type & can't open.

My iPhone 5c phone is not working. I had it in my pocket & it must have got set to to really big text & I can't slide it to unlock it. And I can't turn it off when it is locked. Even if I could unlock it, can't see the screen where it says to turn power off. Won't even run out of battery power since I can't use it so not running battery down. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix?

iPhone 5c, iOS 9.1

It appears that you have activated Zoom from Settings>General>Accessibility. You may have had the home button set for triple-click. You can try to triple-click again and see if that does it. If not, then double-tap on the screen with 3 fingers. You can also double-tap with the 3 fingers, then leaving your fingers on the screen, drag your fingers to change the zoom percentage. This should take care of getting you into the device and then go to Settings>General>Accessibility and make sure that Zoom is off, and then scroll down to the bottom of Accessibility and make sure that Accessibility Shortcut is OFF.
