The 32-year-old suffered anterior cruciate ligament damage in last week's 3-0 win over Celta Vigo.
He had surgery in Germany on Monday, with Barcelona confirming he would be out until at least October.
Valdes is leaving the Catalan club when his contract ends this summer.
"Victor Valdes has been operated on this Monday morning by doctors Ulrich Boenisch and Ricard Pruna in Augsburg on his torn anterior cruciate ligament," read a Barcelona statement.
"The knee's internal cartilage has been sewn up and the operation was concluded successfully."
Valdes, who announced his intention to leave Barcelona last summer, has made 535 appearances since making his debut over a decade ago.
He has won six La Liga titles, three Champions League crowns and two Copa del Reys in his time at the club.
