A generalization of Brillouin-Wigner perturbation theory is applied numerically to the Wigner Band Random Matrix model. The perturbation theory tells that a perturbed energy eigenstate can be divided into a perturbative part and a non-perturbative part with the perturbative part expressed as a perturbation expansion. Numerically it is found that such a division is important in understanding many properties of both eigenstates and the so-called local spectral density of states (LDOS). For the average shape of eigenstates, its central part is found to be composed of its non-perturbative part and a region of its perturbative part, which is close to the non-perturbative part. A relationship between the average shape of eigenstates and that of LDOS can be explained. Numerical results also show that the transition for the average shape of LDOS from the Breit-Wigner form to the semicircle form is related to a qualitative change in some properties of the perturbation expansion of the perturbative parts of eigenstates. The transition for the half-width of the LDOS from quadratic dependence to linear dependence on the perturbation strength is accompanied by a transition of a similar form for the average size of the non-perturbative parts of eigenstates. For both transitions, the same critical perturbation strength $\lambda_b$ has been found to play important roles. When perturbation strength is larger than $\lambda_b$, the average shape of LDOS obeys an approximate scaling law.
