get a phased VCF
annotate the variants (SnpeFF) and filter the variants breaking the protein
extract the gene names for both strands
get the common names in both lists.

or use bcftools csq (https://academic.oup.com/bioinformatics/article/3000373/BCFtools/csq) which can annotate the effects using phase information.

Thank you for the answer. How to get phased VCF if I use Varscan? It it possible to get phased data from VCF after Varscan? Or I need to change my pipeline?
