Convex lenses, also known as plus powered lenses, do cause light to converge. This type of lens is used on a Hyperopic (farsighted) patient. Concave lenses cause light to diverge and are used on Myopic (nearsighted) patients.
Converging or Converging Lens
A converging lens is also known as a convex lens.
A converging lens is thicker in the middle and converges light rays to a focal point, used in cameras and microscopes. A convex lens is also known as a converging lens.
A converging lens is thin at the ends and thick in the middle. It is called converging because the rays of light passing through it, if parallel, converge at a point the other side. A magnifying glass uses a converging lens.

The focal length of a converging lens is the distance from the lens to the point where light rays converge after passing through the 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.

A convex lens is called a converging lens because it converges or brings parallel rays of light together at a focal point after passing through the lens. This results in the rays coming together and converging at a point on the other side of the lens.
A converging lens, also known as a convex lens, is typically thick in the middle and causes light rays to converge to a focal point.
