It's not uncommon to stay on seizure meds for a year or more after surgery.
As the brain heals scar tissue may develop which can alter electrical signals possibly triggering seizures. Better to be safe.

@joetex
As far as discontinuing seizure meds, don't stop abruptly and seek medical advice on how to cut back or stop.
I abruptly stopped when I was 15 and went into status epilepticus (brain unable to terminate seizure on its own) and was in an induced coma for 8 months, forgetting every memory I ever had.
Take care,
