In my particular case, i installed the nvidia driver off the nvidia site, and 
everything was good for about a week. I then 
experienced the blurry text yesterday. 

I searched the sites and what i read ranged from reboot to remove and
re-install unity.  That seemed extreme, so logged out of unity and
logged in as guest. The screens were as crisp as they once were.

It is a profile issue.

 I attempted to find the culprit and what i found is the nvida-settings
file. it is either "corrupted" or has some odd information in it causing
the text to display as blurry. I found an article (can't remember where)
that said it was a H sync scan rate issue within the file.

I tried disabling the FXAA fix but it didn't work for me.

you find it by doing a ls -al (it shows the hidden files/directories)

All I did was find the nvida-settings file and deleted it. Log out and
log back in, and all should be good. The file gets recreated.
