Still cannot see far away after LASIK surgery. Should I go somewhere else for a second opinion?

Rfly23
I had Lasik surgery in December of last year (10months). I had it for both eyes (nearsighted, cannot see far away). I have went to my check-ups and they keep saying I see 20/20 and to use drops and "give it time, it should improve". I guess I should note that all things considered I could barely see my hand in front of my face before, but I still cannot see/read road signs more than 15ft away! Should I go somewhere else for a second opinion? or ask for a different type of exam?
