The cranial nerves are connected to the same side of the brain from which the sensory information originates, except for the optic nerve. Sensory input to the brain enters through pathways that travel through either the spinal cord (for somatosensory input from the body) or the brainstem (for everything else, except the visual and olfactory systems) to reach the diencephalon and thalamus.
