Can't eject DVD although computer keeps trying to eject. Any suggestions?

I tried using Eject button and dragging disc to the trash. I also restarted the computer and held down the mouse button. The computer responds by trying to eject but it doesn't happen. Hoping that I can eject the DVD without any damage to the MacBook Pro with latest operating system

MacBook Pro with Retina display
