How can I visualize the wave function for a certain energy level?

the wavefucntions themselves are neither explicitely written (WAVECAR only gives the coefficients of the PW-part of the wavefunctions) nor is there any visualization tool. However, you can plot the charge density of this state (please have a look at the chapter band decomposed chargendesity in the online handbook) using e.g. STREnder, gnuplot, the data explorer or any other suitable graphics tool
