Which enclosure? I have drives in both the OWC enclosure and the Vantec NexStar DX which work fine with my Mac.

Either the laser is dead or the lens is polluted. You can try a CD cleaning disc to clean the lens. Note: CD! A BD cleaning disc might not be recognized and the CD cleaning disc does the same job. If that fails you have a door stop and the laser is dead. To check you can try a DVD or CD which uses the second laser.
