In this article, we prove boundary observability estimates for wave equations on bounded domains $Ω\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, with a critically singular potential that diverges as the inverse square distance to $\partial Ω$. The result is applicable in all dimensions, and the key geometric assumption is a convexity condition on $Ω$. The main tool for our result is a global Carleman estimate that is carefully adapted to the critical singular nature of the potential.
