Here, the following differential equation \[ z^2w''+ (\beta_0 z^2+ \beta_1 z) w'+ (\gamma_0 z^2+ \gamma_1 z+ \gamma_2) w=0\tag{1} \] is studied. It is supposed that the entire function \(f(z)= \sum^\infty_{n=0} f_nz^n\) is a solution to (1). A function \(f\) is said to be convex if \(f(D)\) is a convex domain, where \(D= \{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|< 1\}\). A function \(f\) is said to be close to a convex function if there exists an analytic convex function \(g\) in \(D\) such that \(\text{Re}(f'(z)/g'(z))> 0\) in \(D\). The author investigates conditions on the coefficients \(\beta_0\), \(\beta_1\), \(\gamma_0\), \(\gamma_1\), \(\gamma_2\) in (1) under which equation (1) has an entire solution of the form \(a(z)= z+\sum^\infty_{n=2} a_nz^n\) with \(a_n> 0\), and all of whose derivatives are close to convex functions. For such solutions, the asymptotic expression for \(\log M_f(r)\) is derived, where \(M_f(r)= \max\{|f(z)|:|z|= r\}\).
