St. Cyprian: Suggested that each creation day corresponded to a period of one thousand years, directly linking the days of Genesis to the concept found in Psalm 90:4 and 2 Peter 3:8.

Didn't another user point out that is not the case. That St Cyprian was actually referring to those who say the world would end after 7000 years because there was 7 days in creation and scripture says 1 day is a 1000 years to God. Not that creation was 1000 years

Maybe.  The point is, St Cyprian was the outlier of the Fathers, most of whom thought that Genesis days were actual days.

Hmmmm what does tradition say about the age of Eve?
Still looking for an answer to this.
