Denise Stott, 66, hit Joseph Muldowney with her Hyundai i10 as he was crossing Sheepfoot Lane, in Oldham, at a T junction at 8.10am on April 3 this year.
Mr Muldowney, who was 84 and was thought to have been using a walking frame, suffered hip and pelvis injuries and died in hospital three days later.
Tameside magistrates court heard that Stott, from Chadderton, Oldham, said she had only been driving at 14mph when rising sunlight from the rooftops of houses in front of her had temporarily blinded her as she approached the T-junction.
It is believed she had not seen Mr Muldowney crossing the road, which has a 30mph speed limit. Police said she remained at the scene to speak to officers. She pleaded guilty to causing death by careless driving before the court.
