Eject! is a freeware program that opens the CD tray on most
Macintoshes (though the original build only works on PowerPC Macs; a
modified build is linked below for 68k Macs). It is compatible with
pre-OS X Macs. Simple to use. Extract the DL archive to some location
inside your hard drive and invoke the Keyboard control panel to bind
Eject! to a function key (F12 is used in OS X, so using the same makes
it easy to remember).

This is freeware, C source included. (public domain)
2nd DL above is the source code for Eject!
Archived here should D. Oster's page disappear.
3rd DL is a 68k build of the code in the 2nd DL done by @cheesestraws
using CW Pro 4, along with the necessary files to rebuild it.

David Phillip Oster's [original DL page for Eject! 1.0.1][1] & Source
code.

Compatibility
Architecture: 68k PPC

Original build PPC only. Tested OK under Mac OS 8.6
Tested and works OK under OS 9.2.2
Not working for me in SheepShaver, so far...

More useful if used with Mac OS 9.1 and earlier (with 9.2, Apple
supplied its own "Eject Extras" utility).

Requires: Standard Apple supplied CD drivers installed.
Gotchas: If a disk is mounted in the drive, it will fail to eject.
Mounted CD/DVD's must be manually ejected.
