    We are switching our rendering from 2 pass to single-pass stereo for better performance in VR.
    Everything works fine except the heathaze effect we apply on a particle which uses the GlassStainedBumpDistort.shader from Effects package.

    I tried the UnityStereoScreenSpaceUVAdjust trick when accessing _GrabTexture in the shader code but it didn't work.

    Is there any workaround to solve the issue?

    Just duplicate the shader and add this to the beginning of frag():

    #if UNITY_SINGLE_PASS_STEREO
    i.uvgrab.xy = TransformStereoScreenSpaceTex(i.uvgrab.xy, i.uvgrab.w);
    #endif

    Note: Per scottb, that's the fix he has in flight into the Standard Assets. So, it'll likely arrive during a patch but this will get you through for now.
