Abstract: Vapor deposition apparatuses and methods for coating a substrate with at least two functional coatings that include a hydrophobic coating are described herein. Some embodiments include a vapor deposition apparatus with at least a first evaporator and a second evaporator, where the evaporator configured to apply the hydrophobic coating is raised above the other evaporator and is thus closer to the substrate. Others include methods of coating a substrate with such evaporators and different distances. Embodiments of the present disclosure can be useful for coating eyeglass lenses. Still others are disclosed.
