Might be good to shut down.

Try shaking the devil out of it or I would take it to an Apple Retail Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for evaluation, or call your nearest Apple Contact Center. Visit the Genius Bar at the Apple Retail Store, make a reservation.

Tip your computer on its side with the CD slot facing down and press the eject key and see if it comes out.

I'm sure you read your User Guide:

"Using the optical drive The SuperDrive in your MacBook Pro supports standard 12 cm (4.7 inch) discs. Irregularly shaped discs or discs smaller than 12 cm (4.7 inches) are not supported."
