It is a lens that possesses at least one surface that curves outwards. It causes light to deviate inward, bringing the rays of light to a focus. Its thicker at its center than at its edges, and is used to correct far-sightedness.
A convex lens is a lens that bulges outward on both sides.
I have another comment. It does do all that stuff and who needed them to build a telescope? It's Galileo Galilie. Ohyah!

Does fresnel lens is a convex lens?
yes...it is a plano-convex lens....wid grooves cut in it on convex side...it is very very thin as compared to a simple convex lens
What part of a convex lens is thicker?
The convex lens are the converging lens. The periphery of the convex lens is thinner & the center part is thicker. In other words, the convex lens are bulging at the center & thinner at the periphery.
What creates an image that is reflected through a focal point?
a convex lens
Why a convex lens is called converging lens?
when a beam of light is passed through the convex lens it converges the beam of ligth.hence convex lens is called a converging lens.
