"ONCE AND FOR ALL"
If you do something once and for all, you do it in a way that's final and it means you'll never have to do it again.
Example: I was tired of getting new glasses every few years so I decided to solve my eyesight problem once and for all and have laser surgery.
De una vez
Example sentences:
